Opium Pipe

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an opium pipe by artist unidentified. The pipe has a long, thin, cylindrical wooden stem with a rounded end. The stem is reddish-brown with yellow caps on both ends. There are metal bands around the pipe near both ends and in the center. The center metal band has a green stone bowl with a small circular blue stone in the center. The background is dark gray to black, with the pipe casting a shadow.
