19th Century Chinese Bamboo Opium Pipe

About the Item

An opium pipe is a pipe designed specifically for the vaporization and inhalation of opium. But these beautiful little antiques have become one-of-a-kind works of art. This late 19th century pipe is hand crafted from bamboo and brass. The pipe is created using the natural shape of the bamboo and is finished with brass on both ends.
