BISON PEACE VESSEL

BISON PEACE VESSEL

Description: 5" hi, 7 1/2" dia. Ebony, dogwood, live oak, wallnut, osage orange, buckthorn,yellow something, & holly.
Wood goes all the way through. Bison horn and eyes are burnt in. There are 3 bison around the bowl. The background for the bison is as close as I could get to sunrise or sunset.

There recently were several white bison born in Canada.
The birth of a white bison is meaningful for many Native American tribes, especially Plains Indians such as the Lakota,
who consider it a symbol of rebirth when the world's people are in troubled times.

Native legend holds that the white bison is a harbinger of peace and unity - a symbol of hope, rebirth

"As the story goes, Lakota Sioux rituals and beliefs were brought to the tribe by a spiritual being known as the
White Buffalo Calf Woman,"

A white buffalo calf is interpreted as the sacred reincarnation of the woman, he said. Historically, the white
buffalo is probably about the most spiritual being on the prairie,"


Therefore this vessel is to bring peace to ALL

Coments welcome. as usua
