Traditional Ceremonial Elbow Pipes |

| 10-1/2" Personal Elbow Pipe |
The total length of this pipe is 10-5/8" long. The bowl measures 2-1/8" long and is 1-7/8" tall. This is a hand crafted traditional elbow pipe made out of pipestone, or catlinite. This particular pipe has many spots or "stars" on it and as you can see on the picture, it also has somewhat of an unusual lighter line running through a portion of it. This pipe is definitely a "one-of-a-kind".
Catlinite pipes are unique in that you will never find two exactly alike. Even when 2 pipes are made out of the exact same piece of stone, there is always something that sets them apart from each other, such as a small spot, a line or some other irregularity in the stone.
The pipe is signed by "Hapan". The stem is made out of California redwood. It is decorated with deer leather and beaded in traditional Sioux style. The pipe is fully functional and will make a great personal pipe for someone. This size pipe would be great to use as a personal Pipe, when you want to pray by yourself using the Pipe.
If you are interested in this pipe, or have any questions about it, or would like to see additional pictures, for ex: the other side of the pipe, a close-up of the beadwork, etc..., please email us or give us a call.
