Sweet and Unusual Old Carved Boot Pipe Bowl! jumping jack Approx 5 7/8" in diameterA very sweet old carved wooden boot, because I think one can never have too many carved boots and shoes but then this one is a pipe bowl, to boot! About as basic as it gets in terms of pipe bowls just a hole in the heel that goes through to the interior but with lovingly incised detailing at the toe, around the sides, and up the front as lacing holes. 3" l x 1 3 8" w x 1 13 16" t. Late 19th very early 20th c, nice dry patina, good condition.
