This intricately carved pipe was made from slate in British Columbia, Canada. The pipe features five anthropomorphic figures forming the bowl and perched along the stem. It was purchased in December 1911 on Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia and gifted to a friend, whose estate in turn gifted it to the Kansas Historical Society in 1932.
