This Pipestone Pipe measures 27 1/4 inches over all connected together with the stem. The only time this pipe and stem have been connected together is while fitting the stem to the pipe and for taking photos.
The Arizona Pipestone measures 4 1/2 inches long and 2 5/8 inches tall. The bowl itself is about 1 inch. This is a rather normal size pipe and also has several unique features such as; loaded with spirit spots and some darker red lines/swirls. (see photos) Spirit spots add to the power and personality of many pipes and create unique medicine. I have never smoke it so it will be up to the new carrier to find this out!
The stem is large and made out of Eastern Cedar and is approx. 22 1/2 inches long without the pipestone connected to it. I also added a strip of Cherry and Black Walnut wood to the stem for added potency. (wood has medicine too!) The stem is also decoracted with silver pheasant, grouse, duck, and two imitation eagle feathers. The imitation eagle feathers can be replaced to make this pipe fully decorated with real items. The stem is also wrapped with a peice of rabbit fur and leather. I added a rossette and several glass crow beads to it too. There are also two buffalo bone hairpipe beads attached to it.
The pipe is brand new and fully functional and will make a very special personal medicine pipe for someone.
This pipe has a very good feel and I know you will be very pleased with it.
This Pipe will be blessed and smudged while being packed for its journey to you.
I have very closely inspected this pipestone for stress cracks and cannot find any. The pipe is very thick and should last for a very long time. Always remember that when connecting the stem to the pipe, it should always be done gently, as forcing it and adding stress may break the pipestone.
This pipe is to be sold as is and there will be no refunds once it has been smoked out of.
