Papua New Guinea Pipe Tobacco Etched Bamboo Custom Social Men Tobacco Pipe

This is a unique carved Bamboo Tobacco Smoking Pipe used by the men of Lower Sepik Region of Papua New Guinea. Tobacco was introduced to New Guinea by Europeans, three or four centuries ago. This particular Smoking Pipe is a long bamboo tube with a burnt-in design. Most have geometric designs, but some depict spirit-figures and faces similar to those found on drums and on men's bark belts. Different smoking pipes are used in different parts of Papua New Guinea, in some areas people used smaller tubes, rather like cigarette-holders. Each pipe made is one-of-a kind due to the tribe and man who carves and decorates it. This pipe is unique and would be interesting in your home or your office.

This was collected in the field and has been used.
