VINTAGE NATIVE AMERICAN PEACE PIPE AND BAG FISH HEAD ANTLER BEADS FEATHERS WOW

For your consideration we are offering this unique vintage American Indian Peace Pipe and it's accompanying leather pouch. As this is an estate find where it was gleaned from a collection that had other Native American items among a voluminous amount of rare and historical items (person was a dealer), little is known of it's provenance. Therefore e bay requires me to list it as "non Native American" because we can not specify the tribe or region.  This amazing pipe has all the bel...ls and whistles including, beautiful beading, wrapped leather and feathers. The bowl is unused and is made from a deer antler and is adorned with the skeletal head of a Gar  or other pointy nose fish with fearsome teeth. There are also hanging leather strands with beads. The entire pipe measures 25 inches long and has attained a wonderful patina. The accompanying leather bag is augmented with hanging leather tassels and feathers and is painted with ethnographic images of a bear with his tracks and small suns in each corner. The bag is sewn with leather lacing and measures twenty two inches long. Please examine the photos closely as they attest to the beauty of this peace pipe and it's overall condition. If you are knowledgeable about Native American items and could shed light on the origin  and age of this pipe it would be appreciated. Bid with confidence as we stand behind our auctions and will gladly refund the purchase price if unhappy for any reason(buyer to pay return shipping). Additionally we only charge exact shipping and will reimburse any difference between the e bay shipping calculator and the actual shipping cost. Thank you for looking at our auctions Good Luck and Happy Bidding!!
