About UNACC:
Knowing of the impending closure of the Fort Devens Military Base, and armed with a deep passion and concern for the advancement and protection of Native American rights and the preservation of our Native American History and Heritage. Founder Onkwe Tase began the search for the center’s home. He strategically hit selectman’s offices and town meetings in the communities that were to be affected by the base closure and tirelessly solicited over a thousand support signatures. The relentless dedication of many Native Americans, along with support from the general public, enabled UNACC to remain earmarked for the P-5 building on the map of the Devens Re-Use Plan.
This grassroots effort, although passionate, lacked the business, legal and financial backing necessary to play ball with the Federal, State and Defense Department officials and procedures. We stood outside the fort with little chance of moving in. Early in 1994, this major obstacle and challenge was overcome by solidifying UNACC by-laws and the incorporation for our non-profit status. Working with a variety of government organizations including Military officials and cutting through the jungle of red-tape, we successfully produced an occupancy agreement. UNACC moved to the 2nd floor of P-5 and granted LandBanks Marketing Center a 1 year lease of the 1st floor. LandBanks beautifully renovated, donated the construction upgrades and left as agreed in 1 year.
Throughout this entire process, the UNACC Board of Directors and members tirelessly and selflessly volunteered their time and efforts. Many fund-raisers and cultural enrichment programs have been launched to raise awareness and earn operating funds.

We offer natural Abalone Shell to hold Smudging materials like Sage or Incense. Many people prefer to use a natural Smudge Bowl like a shell in Smudging ceremonies.
They come natural and untreated. They may come with chips or rough edges. You can see the iridescent mother-of-pearl on the inside of the shell. You can also see the rough spot where the snail was attached to the shell. The shell comes with a line of small holes that allowed the snail to breathe. The outside of the shell appears rough and bumpy. These are natural products, so expect imperfections and variations in color and size.
Native Americans of the west coast have harvested Abalone for centuries. They consumed the meat and used the shells to make Beads, fishhooks and decorative items.
The size of these shells on the market has decreased. Our shells measure approximately 5″ on the longest side.
You can purchase an Abalone Shell alone, or try our Shell with Wooden Stand or our Gift Set which comes with a stand and a small Sage Smudge Stick.

Our Red Clay Wedding Vases are made by Native American artists. They etch traditional designs on them and finish them with traditional colors. You will find the artist’s signature on the bottom of each Vase. These Vases are made with red clay. The insides are not glazed, so they will not hold liquids.
Several Native American peoples, especially in the Southwest, have used Wedding vases as part of a marriage ceremony. On a Wedding Vase, one spout represents the husband, the other the wife. The looped handle represents the unity of marriage. A special beverage was added to the vase and the couple drank from it. Wedding Vases make a special gift for a new couple.
Our medium vase measures 8″ tall x 5.5″ at the widest point. The small vase measures 5.5″ tall x 4.5″ at the widest point. The colors & designs may vary from vase to vase.

This Pipe Soapstone Otter Effigy comes from an artist in Maine. He created this reproduction pipe based on historical examples from New England. The artist made the entire pipe from soapstone. He carved the pipe bowl itself in the form of a Native American clay pot complete with a cross-hatched edge. He added the three dimensional otter carving to the side. The carving features eyes, ears, mouth and toe marks. The Pipe measures just about 9 inches long overall. The bowl stands 2.25 inches tall. The stem portion measures 6.5 inches long by about 0.5 inches in diameter. The Otter carving measures 2.5 inches x 1.25 inches. One of a Kind!
Various Native American tribes have made and used soapstone pipes for centuries. Soapstone is a type of metamorphic rock that is relatively soft and easy to carve. Native American crafters value it for its workability and heat-retaining properties, making it suitable for crafting pipes.
This Pipe Soapstone Otter Effigy is a functional pipe. It is heavy and fragile, so we recommend keeping it for display. One of a Kind!

This Sioux Style Beaded Blanket Strip features a colorful geometric design. You will see a metal spot along with red and green ribbon tassels hanging from the center of each rosette. The crafter beaded the leather, backed with masking tape with Seed Beads in White, Light Blue, Royal Blue, Brown, Transparent Green and Mustard Yellow. The strip measures approx. 50″ long and 3.5″ wide. The rosettes are 4.5″ in diameter. One of a Kind!
The Native Americans of the Northern Plains created Beaded Blanket Strips in the mid 19th century. Blanket Strips originated as a means to cover the seam when two Braintanned Buffalo Hides were sewn together to create one large robe. Eventually, Native American crafters began to use wool Trade Blankets for robes. They added their beaded strips to them in a purely decorative manner.

Add this Bag Beaded Belt to your collection or use it to carry small items. The crafter made this bag from Deerskin Leather. He or she added a tab to the back so you can slide it on to your belt. On the front, the crafter used lazy stitch to create the attractive geometric designs with Transparent Green, Transparent Red, White, Black and Copper Lined Clear Seed Beads. He or she added edge beading around the sides of the bag and the top flap with White Seed Beads. Then the crafter stitched on a velcro-like closure that keeps the top flap closed. The crafter’s name and 2007 appear on the back of the bag.
This Bag Beaded Belt came from a collection. It does have a musty odor that may dissipate with time if you leave it open. The beadwork is intact. The bag measures 5.5 inches by 3.25 inches. The belt tab on the back measures 2.5 inches by 1.25 inches at the narrowest spot. Use this bag as a convenient way to carry small items, or add it to your collection. One of a Kind!
