It is said that a white buffalo appeared in the form of a woman who wore white hides. One man was respectful toward her, and the other was not. The one who was not was turned into a pile of bones. She gave the respectful brave a pipe and taught him the special music. She also taught him various rituals and said that she would someday return in an era of peace. Handmade and raku fired this small buffalo is a unique small sculpture inspired by fetishes and Inuit art.
