wood, ceramic, metal, pokerwork, rep., base

For a pipe bowl by the same artist, see AHDRC 0017141. Another comparable piece shown in Cremer (2004), p. 176, ill. 103.

Both the bowl made of terracotta and the face carved on the wooden shaft are remarkably filigree, with clearly cut fine facial features and finely detailed incised decor.
