Two mended fragments of a partial smoking pipe stem and bowl rim with a spur/heel. The spur is plain, narrow, and tall. The interior of the bowl is heavily smoke-stained. The bowl of the pipe has a large rust stain visible on the exterior. The bowl of the pipe is slightly bellied and closes to Hume's #19 shape. The side of the bowl has a very faint cartouche that is illegible.
