About The Piece:

In Plains culture pipes took on a ritual and religious importance and are steeped in cultural significance. Collectors can not only enjoy the aesthetic appeal but buy something with a direct link to the American Indian past. Pipes and tobacco were used for medicinal purposes and smoking was used to counter hunger and thirst and to focus the smoker intellectually and spiritually. Pipes were also utilized as objects of exchange, creating alliances for peace, trade and war. Some pipes were occasionally used in the torture and execution of enemies, while others were utilized for personal cleansing and recreation.
