Native American-Made Black Pipestone Four Winds Pipe

This fully functional peace pipe features a bowl carved from pipestone, symbolizing the Four Winds. For Native American people, the Four Winds correspond to the four sacred directions:

North: Signifies life’s hardships and discomforts, akin to the cold winds of winter.
South: Represents the blessings of life, reminiscent of the warm winds of summer and the growing season.
East: Marks the beginning of the day.
West: Denotes the end of the day and the culmination of life.

The wooden stem is adorned with leather and beads, adding to its intricate design. Handcrafted by Santee Sioux artisan J. D. Wallenberg, also known as Loud Thunder, this pipe is made from authentic pipestone sourced in Pipestone, Minnesota. The bowl measures 4.25 inches in length and 2.5 inches in height. ^
