    .
    Interpretation:
    This style of tomahawk would have been present during talks of war. If the talks went well, the pipe of the tomahawk would be smoked and passed as a symbol of peace then taken out and buried--the weapon would not be used. (This is where we got the phrase "Bury the hatchet.")
    Dimensions:
    Approx. 8 in. long
    *Note:
    Each pipe is hand-made and therefore will be unique. The pipe you receive will be very similar to the image shown but may vary in details including bead color, bead-work, horsehair and feathers. Our supplier purchases dozens of pipes with each order but supplies us with one 'in-general' image to work with. Please understand they have thousands of items and do not have the time to image every individual piece. Personally I like the idea that each pipe is slightly different and I hope you too will appreciate owning something unique and one-of-a kind.
