Pipe Tamper # 8 "The Claw-Footed Leg"

Much 18th century furniture is characterized by its claw-footed legs. Did our forebears wish their chairs to walk? Or did they simply realize that claws holding orbs look impressive, and not worry sick over it? This exquisitely detailed tamper is a reproduction of an 18th century piece. Note the scales and claws: wonderful work, and only 2.75" in length. Please click on image to view larger format. pewter pipe tampers pipe smoking accessories
