EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the beauty and cultural significance of a Calumet, or peace pipe, belonging to the Nez Perce tribe of American Indians in the late 19th century. The intricate craftsmanship and symbolism displayed in this artifact speak volumes about the rich heritage and traditions of indigenous peoples.
The Nez Perce tribe, known for their skilled artistry and deep connection to nature, used the Calumet as a sacred object in ceremonies and rituals. It served as a symbol of peace, unity, and respect among tribal members.
The detailed design on this particular Calumet reflects the spiritual beliefs and values of the Nez Perce people. Each element carefully crafted with precision and care, showcasing their reverence for nature and harmony with the world around them.
Displayed at the Horniman Museum in London, UK, this piece serves as a reminder of the resilience and cultural legacy of Native American tribes from the Plateau region. It stands as a testament to their enduring traditions that have been passed down through generations.
