Effigy pipes, such as this Horse Pipe are made in honor of the animals that are particularly important to the Native American spiritual tradition.

Size and shape varies as each pipe is hand carved no two are exactly the same. The photo is a representative sample. Approximate size: Stem & Bowl together: 23" (58 cm) long
