Bone tube / hair pipe - 38 mm

Bone tube / hair pipe - 38 mm.

Tube shaped hair pipe of bone with a length of 38 mm made of real water buffalo bone.

This beautiful bone tube is a natural product, which was produced in laborious manual work. Each hair pipe is a handmade unique piece and can therefore vary in shape and size more or less and not always have a perfect shape.

Our bone tubes are made from the bones of water buffalo and are available in white, natural, brown or black color.

Size: approx. 38 x 6 - 8 mm. The hole measures: approx. 1.5 mm.

Since the earliest days of mankind, bones of various animals have been processed into leg beads and other jewellery.

For our bone hair pipes many different manual operations are used. Bone beads can be worked by mechanical processing such as turning, milling, carving and grinding or by thermal treatment such as burning and steaming and even polished to a shine. Like ivory, hair pipes made of white bone can take on a slightly yellowish colour after a few years.
