Handmade Antler Peace Pipe with Genuine Sting Ray leather

Each of our one-of-a-kind hand-made pipes are skillfully crafted by shop owner, Lone Eagle. Each pipe is a unique individual, no two are identical. These thoughtfully crafted works of functional art make a memorable gift for the holidays or father's day. The dream for these antler pipes first became a reality back in 1976, Big Sur, California. Lone Eagle wanted to create a pipe that was sturdy yet non-toxic compared to the common brass pipes back then. He learned that deer antler pipes not only offered an alternative, they also were a beautiful reflection of creativity. Original one-of-a-kind hand made ceremonial deer antler peace pipe. The deer antler hook lets the pipe bowl fit perfectly in one's hand. The use of colors, skill of craftsmanship, and textures of this ceremonial pipe bring stillness and peace of mind.

We pay homage to our ancestor’s by remembering the old ways of gathering resources, thereby leaving our world as unpolluted and unspoiled as possible. Only by doing things in this mindful way can ones creation’s attain their full beauty and power. We personally gather many of our own material’s, as well as screen our supplier’s for outstanding environmental and humane practice’s (e.g. use of cruelty free feathers). In this same vein, our work environment is tailored to reduce, reuse and recycle. The following is just a few ways we do this: • We make full use of our leather hides and never throw out ‘leftovers’ from pattern cutting, as everything eventually can be used. • We support our local supplier’s whenever possible to cut down on the transportation effects of long distance delivery, amongst other reasons. • Minimal staff use of paper products in everyday use as well as in packaging practices. • Non-toxic shop supplies (e.g. glue). • Support of ethical fair trade products. At Native Riders we are always growing in our efforts to progress in our stewardship of the planet. Forever students of the globe we strive to improve daily, realizing there is much to learn and integrate into our lifestyles and habits. We pledge to continue to develop in this area and hope to inspire others to do the same. Aho, The Native Riders Artists
