Description: | Incomplete fragment of a clay tobacco pipe bowl of late post medieval date (1660-1680). The pipe fragment measures 31.7mm length, diameter 21.4mm, weight 6.17 grams. The foot measures 12.2mm x 10.1mm. The information within this report is taken from an identification provided by Mr Rex Key of Broseley Pipe Museum. Thanks are extended to both Rex Key and Mr Graham Berlyn for their time and comments.
A Broseley Type 2 style bowl, from 1660-80. Clearly stamped with the makers mark of Henry Bradley , a conjoined HB within a heart shaped cartouche / panel. The pipe shows signs of burnishing but the mouth is lost so the rouletting cannot be seen. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Reavill, Peter - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
