Pipe with disc bowl is held by National Museum of Romanian History. Museum description: Pipe made of reddish ceramic, with a low disc-shaped bowl decorated on its surface, around the rim, with radially arranged grooves. The bowl is demarcated from the rim by a line made with a roulette wheel. The short shank extends onto the back of the bowl in a "V" shape. It is decorated with two concentric incised lines made with a roulette wheel. The ring is sleeve-shaped, decorated with rhombs made with a roulette wheel. The piece is missing the bowl wall and shows chips and scratches on its exterior dating from the period of its use, as well as dirt accretions from the soil in which it was discovered. The museum record gives measurements D bowl 34 mm; D ring 19 mm; length: 49 mm; height: 15 mm. These details come from the holding museum's own record; how far this object represents a wider collectible type has not yet been independently verified.
