Fragment pijpenkop 1710 - 1740

"Fragment pijpenkop" is a clay pipe bowl, dated to 1710-1740, and is an example of folk art. The bowl is decorated with a relief design of a bird in flight. Clay pipe bowls were a common everyday object in the 18th century, and this fragment provides a glimpse into the craftsmanship and decorative styles of the time. The small size of the object, only 4.6 cm in length and 2.3 cm in width, suggests that it was intended for personal use.
