Description

Amazing find measuring 7 5/8″ x 4″ x 2″ in classic Black Steatite. This piece was found in a tobacco field (now a hay field) in the Ish Creek Bottoms in Blount Co., Tennessee in the early 1990’s by a local laborer. The exact location is known and is now a hay field. The pipe’s features are exceptionally well done with stylized wings and feet. There is damage to one side from agricultural equipment and a small fragment of the bowl rim has been glued. Jerry Dickey and Jackson Galleries COA’s along with an Advanced Artifact Report from The Artifact Company accompany this Ancient Masterwork.
