19th Century Brass Tomahawk with Pewter Inlays Human Figure Thunderbird RARE
BRASS TRADE PIPE TOMAHAWK, brass head with pipe poll, handle inlaid with pewter, the decoration featuring a Thunderbird, a standing figure, a sun circle, double arrows, double cross, crossed arrows, and geometric designs. It is a rare gem. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to own a beautiful and exceptionally unique piece of American history. 8″ L head, 15 1/4″. Fourth quarter 19th century. Excellent condition overall, pewter inlay with some likely early solder repairs, losses to mouthpiece likely from use. Private collection of Wallace Gusler, Williamsburg, VA. Gusler, This appears to be a commercial example of the type marketed to the Native population. The pewter inlay work was possibly executed by a Native American. The designs in the handle area of the tomahawk show Southwest Indian style – a thunderbird and a standing man, both executed with straight lines and corners, a style derived from weaving. There is also a sun circle at the end of the grip area, moving toward the head on each side. Double arrows, a double cross, and crossed arrows, and other geometric details are between the grip area and the head. In some areas solder repairs have been made, very easy to spot because of their lighter silver color. These appear to have been done during the period of active use. The integral mouthpiece has been broken off and shows good age, showing damage sustained a long time ago. I always provide tracking information for buyers to track their investments.

Very Rare Antique (massive) Sioux Tomahawk, 18th to 19th century Indian Wars
It is massive with 1.08 kg, a characteristic of the very early tomahawks. The metal head/blade was made by the white blacksmiths (interestingly, the logo on blade looks like “Morning Star”, which is very famous to the Indians), and traded to the Indians either directly or via specialized companies (such as the “American Fur Trade Company”). The tribe of tomahawk should be Sioux (according to its origin when acquired and its adornment). It is a rare find nowadays as it is a very early tomahawk decorated with antique red porcupine quills, and a couple of brass tacks and tin cones. Of note, the antique wooden handle (crude cut from tree branch) appears to have some remains of red/redish color, suggesting it had been tinted in red (with pigments) at one time. All is original and antique on this particularly impressive tomahawk. Size (metal head/blade): 7.48 inches. Overall length of tomahawk: 20.47 inches. Weight of tomahawk: 1.08 kg!

18th Century Native American Indian Pipe Tomahawk Historically Rare Long Island
Historically rare early east coast forged Pipe Tomahawk circa 1775 or before. Measures 8 1/4 in length and has an early type of forging. This rare find is one of only a few original pipe tomahawk heads ever found. This item was found in the early 1970’s by Charles Greenman in a junk shop in Long Island, New York. He asked the store owner where it came from and he said a local farmer outside the city brought it in after plowing it up on his farm. Charles eventually gave it to his son Carlos Greenman who still resides in Ojo Caliente Hot Springs in New Mexico. I bought it from Lynn Canterbury in September of this year at a show in Santa Fe, New Mexico. This item was dug decades ago and is truly an American treasure. Belongs in a Museum. Guaranteed all original and authentic. The item “18th Century Native American Indian Pipe Tomahawk Historically Rare Long Island” is in sale since Sunday, November 10, 2019.
