Fragment pijpenkop 1814 - 1830

This ceramic pipe bowl, "Fragment pijpenkop" (fragment of pipe head), was created by Adrianus Frans Sparnaaij between 1814 and 1830. The small, fragmented bowl of the pipe is decorated with a central medallion and intricate patterns. The pipe head is an example of utilitarian pottery, reflecting a time when pipe smoking was a common practice. It's a small but interesting artifact that gives insight into 19th-century Dutch culture and craftsmanship.
