The Congolese Tobacco Pipe is an authentic piece from The Congo Kuba Tribe. Itis one of the most highly developed of all African traditions, and significant cultural accomplishments are part of their heritage.
This elaborately carved and ornamented tobacco pipe was not merely a functional smoking implement, but was also a symbol of its owner’s status. The bowl of the pipe has been given the form of a head with exaggerated features, accented by planes of smooth carving and textured incisions. As symbols of prestige, Kuba pipes were not stored out of sight when not in use, but rather worn tucked into their owner’s belt, visible for all to see.
Dimensions: 40cm L by 15cm H
