Native American Wolf Pipe

The total length of this ceremonial Wolf Effigy Pipe is 23" long. It is made out of Sacred Catlinite, which is commonly referred to, by many people, as Pipestone. Catlinite has been used for centuries by Native Americans to make important ceremonial pipes and other items. It is a red stone that is believed to have originated from the blood of Native American ancestors.

The pipe bowl measures 5-1/2" long and it is 3" tall. As you can see on the photo's it is nice and dark red over virtually all of the pipe. There are also a few of the attractive spots or "stars" in the pipe, as well as a single area near the bottom square part of the bowl that is a lighter orangeish color. The unique markings make this a true one-of-a-kind ceremonial pipe.
