Lot 869
Lot of Vintage Ethnic Pipes. Ancient to Antique. Earliest, Amerind: a short-eared quadruped with cylindrical bowl on back, the tail serving as pipe stem, with segmented ornament. Likely a beaver is intended here. Next a molded white pipe in fine-grain ceramic, with relief design of crowned castle amid shamrocks. Perhaps English, c. 1800, for the Irish market. Last, an Indonesian(?) carved wood kneeling woman forming the bowl. Longest item: 6". Lot of 3 items.
Estimated Value $150 - 200.
