19th Century Dutch Silver Pipe Stopper with Ship
Located in Delft, NL
A 19th century Dutch silver pipe stopper with ship.
A ship on a plateau on the stem. The stem is openwork and twisted. The pipe cleaner was originally a simple instrument only intended to empty the pipe bowl. 19th Century and Dutch hallmarked with the "Sword" used from 1814-1906. The silversmith mark is faded
The size of the pipe cleaner is 10,5 cm high, 2 cm wide and the depth is 0,7 cm
( 4.1 Inch x 0.8 Inch x 0.3 Inch)
The weight is 14 grams
The silver version of the pipe cleaner, consisting of a pen topped by a figure, has no relation to the luxurious multi-piece garnish or the clipping tube. It originated from the simple brass or copper predecessor or the more popular variant of wood, bone or in a rare case also ivory. It is a consumable with only one purpose: to remove the tobacco plug at the bottom of the pipe bowl and to clean the kettle. The point is the working part of the object, the decorative element functions as a handle. In addition to the pipe stopper intended for pressing the smoldering tobacco, the rooting tool is an indispensable tool for the smoker to empty the pipe bowl after smoking.
Strangely enough, there is little relationship between the pipe stopper on the one hand and the pipe rooter on the other. It is especially remarkable that the silver rooters...

Córdoba 1901: A Cartographic Journey Through Andalusia’s Heartland in Spain
Located in Langweer, NL
The map provided is of the province of Córdoba, part of the autonomous community of Andalusia in southern Spain, as of the year 1901. It details various elements:
The map displays the varied terrain of Córdoba, including the Sierra Morena to the north and the beginning of the Subbaetic Range to the south. It shows blue lines indicating rivers, most likely including the Guadalquivir River, which runs through the province. Red lines represent the transportation network of roads and railways, detailing how the province is interconnected.
Symbols on the map mark the locations of cities, towns, and villages, with the capital city of Córdoba highlighted. Dotted lines suggest the borders of the province within the region of Andalusia. A legend (Signos Convencionales) details the symbols used for provincial capitals, roads, railways, and other features. A scale in kilometers is included to assist in measuring distances between points on the map.
The coat of arms of Córdoba is prominently featured, displaying a castle and a lion, which are common heraldic symbols with historical significance to the region.
About the province of Córdoba:
Córdoba is historically significant, known for its cultural heritage, particularly during the time when it was the capital of the Islamic Emirate and then Caliphate of Córdoba. This period left a lasting architectural mark, notably the Mezquita-Catedral (Mosque-Cathedral), which is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The province's geography is diverse, with fertile valleys in the Guadalquivir basin and extensive olive groves, making it one of the most important areas for olive oil production...
