Eli Cheama's dignified bovine has bright turquoise eyes and mighty horns from jet. Intricate etching in varying degrees creates lovely fur effect.

As Eli weathered the creative storm, he said the process wasn't so peaceful. It was a creative purge of sorts, something he found must be brought into reality to find an inner peace, perhaps an unintended metaphor. This hard-won masterpiece was well-worth it in the end, as he said that ultimately \"it represents peace, hence the peace pipe.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFine details such as a feathered war bonnet and breastplate are exquisitely rendered. Soulful eyes are from jet paste. The miniature pipe is sculpted from pipestone also known as catlinite. Its deep reddish color and texture has made it a prized material to carve ceremonial pipes that carry prayers to the Creator according to some traditional beliefs. Dimensions in their entirety are about 2 7\/8\" tall, 2 1\/8\" wide and 2 1\/4\" deep.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eli Cheama","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42280686190677,"sku":null,"price":630.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0888\/5204\/files\/EliCheama-fish-rock-chiefv3.jpg?v=1774451959"}],"url":"https:\/\/keshi.com\/collections\/eli-cheama\/animal-bison.oembed","provider":"Keshi The Zuni Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
