Wooden Figural Pipe Bowl – Robert E. Lee

Wooden Figural Pipe Bowl – Robert E. Lee - Inventory Number: SCU 083

This finely carved wooden pipe bowl depicts the head and bust of General Robert E. Lee, commander of the Confederate Army during the American Civil War. Crafted in the likeness of Lee with his iconic swept hair, full beard, and dignified expression, this figural piece is an excellent example of 19th-century tobacciana with a patriotic or commemorative theme.

The bowl features rich patina and fine detail throughout, especially in the facial contours and hair. This pipe bowl would have originally attached to a curved or straight stem, now absent. These portrait pipes were often popular among veterans and civilians as personal tributes to revered leaders.

A rare and evocative artifact for collectors of Civil War relics, Southern memorabilia, or antique smoking accessories, offering both artistic craftsmanship and historical significance.
