Between the oldest tobacco pipe from pre-Columbian Ecuador and the most modern pipe models lie 25 centuries of pipe smoking. A period of time in which the design of the pipe again shows an astonishing variation on every continent. It is not without reason that several collectors presented in this book, each from their own point of view, have built up a collection of pipes with unmistakable pleasure. The Pijpenkabinet collection is one of the most prominent, both on a European and global scale. An overview of the 25 centuries of smoking culture for this book could easily be compiled from this rich museum collection. The story in this book is not only a story about tradition, fashion and design of the tobacco pipe, but it is also the catalog of the Pijpenkabinet collection from Amsterdam. Art historian Benedict Goes takes the reader on an imaginary world journey through dozens of countries and peoples: Europe, Mexico, China, dark Africa, etcetera. In addition, the author gives a description of the pipes with their variation in material, design and use. The full-color illustrations complete this colorful picture of the worldwide cultural phenomenon of pipe smoking.
