Title
Post medieval pipe tamper
Description
English: A complete copper alloy post medieval (c.1600-1800) pipe tamper in the shape of a woman. The woman is depicted wearing a long dress which sits below the feet, and has sleeves covering the elbows. The woman's right arm holds up one part of the dress, revealing the right leg to the knee. The dress is in a Greek or Hellenistic style, with the dress draped in folds. The other arm is raised and holding an object on her shoulder, this is possibly a jug. Across the dress running from the left shoulder to the hip on the opposite side is a sash. The woman's head is turned slightly to the left, and her hair is pulled up in a bun secured in the middle of the back of her head. The face is worn. The pipe tamper measures 66.9mm in height, 31.3mm in width, and 10.2mm at maximum thickness. It weighs 33.54g.

The pipe tamper is almost identical to WAW-6B20D4 on the database, which has been dated to the 17th- 18th Century.
