The "hair pipe" shape is inspired by a Native American bead, typically made from animal bone or horn, although some earlier specimens made of shell have been found. These aboriginal forms found use as hair adornments, choker and bracelet beads, in warrior breast plates and as stems for corncob pipes.
Our Venetian glass versions make terrific focal pendants.
