Stem and base of a clay smoking pipe, 2 views (bottom: view from side with pipe bowl to the right; top: view from top).

This pipe has a round flared base. Its bowl is missing. The stem joins the bowl at the base (a "single-angled" form). The cylindrical stem has a collared, lobed ("quatrefoil") lip with circular impressions and small incisions on each of four lobes. The pipes is decorated overall with a red slip. Photo scale in cm.
