Native American Ceremonial Effigy or Animal Pipes

This is a smaller personal pipe that is handcrafted out of Sacred Pipestone or catlinite.

This buffalo head pipe is made out of a piece of the stone that is dark red over virtually 100% of it.

It seems natural to make a peace pipe with a buffalo on it. The buffalo provided every single neccessity to the Plains Indians from their clothing to their food to their lodging and even provided some of the things they needed for tools. It was critical to their very survival.

This pipe will measure 12" long, when the stem is inserted. The bowl itself measures 3-5/8" long and it is 2-1/2" tall. There is some extra-ordinary craftsmanship in this pipe, (especially considering the smaller size of the pipe and the buffalo) including details showing the mouth, nostrils, the horns & the ears. The eventual owner of this pipe is sure to be pleased with their purchase!

The burned stem is made out of Pine. This pipe has excellent draw and the bowl has been reamed out to allow for a nice amount of tobacco. This will be a very nice personal or ceremonial pipe for someone. The pipe is signed by Many Lightnings. He is an enrolled member of the Sisseton Wahpeton Dakota Sioux tribe.
