Around 1900, kings, dignitaries and heads of families in the grasslands of Cameroon smoked tobacco. The more splendid the pipe appeared, the higher the rank of the smoker. This pipe from the kingdom of Bamum is particularly splendid. Its pipe is embroidered with colourful glass beads from Europe in a complex pattern. The clay bowl was probably made in the neighbouring kingdom of Bali. In 1908, King Njoya of Bamum (reigned approx. 1887 - 1933) presented it to the then German governor of Cameroon, Theodor Seitz (*1863 - †1949), as a birthday present for Emperor Wilhem II.
