Description

Pipe made almost entirely of lead. It consists of two pieces connected mid-way along the stem by coupler made of wood. The top of the bowl has a shallow concavity, and a strip of copper has been inlaid around the rim. On the underside of the bowl are a series of incisions with dark staining. A pick made of bone or antler is fastened to the pipe by a strand of braided sinew.
