Bowl of pipe with removable stem

This bowl of a pipe with removable stem is finely incised on one side with an unusual decoration: a man’s profile. This pipe bowl was found with about 20 others on the Le Ber-Le Moyne heritage site, in Lachine. It was probably made from clay dug near Maison Le Ber-Le Moyne, with the motif incised while the clay was still wet.
