Title
Post medieval Pipe tamper Probable
Description
English: This is an interesting lead-alloy Post Medieval personal object, most likely a pipe tamper. It takes the form of a smiling female figure in an erotic pose with her hands holding her skirt above her waist. The dress and head-dress are typical of the 16th century but the artefact is more likely to date to the 17th or 18th century. At some point in the distant past the figure has lost that part below the knees that would have served as the tamper. The artefact is a brown-grey colour with spots of light grey corrosion, where small areas of the surface have been lost mid-grey coloured metal is visible.
