The Three Bowls of the dark clay bowl are certainly a striking object to any smoker.. and again the small bowl from the larger one in fact “Bowl major.” “Bowl Minor”—this plurality we shall find in India, still that does not very clearly explain the why & wherefore—unless it emanates from mere love of being unlike others.. The Light coloured Red Clay of the Ashantee Pipes is very striking—& the form of the Bowls still more so. There is a decidedly Classical character about them.. as if started from Roman Lamps & Pompeian ideas & then supplied to their Colonies—.
