C. 1890's fine Sioux catlinite pipe
24" long with accompanying tattered note which reads "collected in 1912 at Chadron Nebraska from Little Deer Pine Ridge, S. Dak-he owned pipe for 10 years- made before he owned it" Pipe displays great patina, stem carved in circular and faceted square form, bowl flattened bottom undercoated. Collector consignor disclosed an undetectable repair to stem. Interesting pipe with good history.
