Fragment tabakspijp 1635 - 1650

This 17th-century clay pipe is a small but significant artifact, offering a glimpse into the everyday lives of people in the past. The pipe, measuring only 3.1 cm in length and 2.0 cm in width, is a simple, yet functional object, reflecting the common use of tobacco in the 17th century. The pipe's unassuming form and small size provide insight into the widespread adoption of tobacco smoking during this period. Despite the lack of an attributed artist, this clay pipe is a testament to the enduring presence of everyday objects in the historical record.
