  • Abo Glass Ishi Point, Glass Arrowhead SOLD

    This glass point is a copy of the type used by Ishi, famously known as the last wild Indian of North America.  This little arrow point is made from a thin piece of window glass, and is identical to the ones Ishi made when he was living in the wilderness of Northern California.  He’d tip his arrows with these points and use them for hunting deer and other game in the wilds along Deer and Mill Creeks.  There are a few surviving examples of Ishi’s original hunting arrows and they were tipped with glass points identical to the one seen here.  Free shipping on this order to all destinations within the U.S.

  • Ishi Aboriginal Point (NEW!)

    $25.00

    This fresh-outta-the-shop arrowhead copies the ones Ishi made when he was living in his aboriginal homeland in the wilderness of Deer and Mill Creeks in Northern California.  Ishi’s arrows were tipped with points of clear window glass just like this one; the glass was most likely scavenged from broken windows in old cabins.  This fine point follows the exquisite workmanship that Ishi put into all his weapons.  Free shipping within the U.S.

  • Light Blue Glass Wintu Point (SOLD)

    This exquisite Wintu point is made from a piece of ice blue glass.  This long, lean point is 4″ long and just barely under 1″ in width at the base.  It’s gorgeous, with delicate, upturned notches and a flat, symmetrical profile.  Points of this size are difficult to make because they’re so easy to snap in half if your support isn’t perfect.  Thankfully this one made it through the treacherous manufacturing process and this is the result.
