Muiracatiara wood, also known as Tigerwood, is known for its rich and warm tones that are highlighted with dark, erratic stripping. Truly a unique species, impossible to replicate, it is photosensitive and will darken over time developing a more uniform and subdued look.
Purpleheart is a stunning wood often used for luxury joinery, parquet flooring and for external purposes, such as poles, railway sleepers, bridges, house construction, etc. It is highly resistant to attack by rotting fungi and very resistant to dry wood termites.
By joining these two materials we offer you an exotic and high quality combination that makes your sacred tool even more special.
2 in 1 Kuripe and Tepi Rapé Applicator
The tool we use to serve medicine is just as important as the medicine itself. Each Tepi, Kuripe or Pipe in our shop is handmade by Peruvian or Brazillian craftsmen with materials and elements that have unique properties and qualities to assist in our healing practices.
The tool and the medicine join forces and work as a team. It is important to understand that we too are medicine and part of the team that comes together when working with sacred plants. We have to look after ourselves as such if we want to lift ourselves and those around us higher. We have to do the work. The plants aren't there to do it for us. They are our teachers and guides, but what matters most, is how we apply the gifts they bestow upon us to our everyday lives.
Also know that you are a fundamental piece in propagating and maintaining indigenous practices and cultures alive. May you be blessed with much “Haux” (cleansing) and make use of this sacred tool in a good way. These practices have the power discharge negative energy, decalcify the pineal gland, connect us to nature and creation, open the sensitive field and third eye, connect you to your elemental guides, dissipate mental blockages, and align the mental field.
Bless up!!
