Power Animal Spirit, Jaguar / Panther Necklace Kuripe pipe high quality for Rapé medicine, shamanic tobacco snuff SELF applicator, eyes GLOW in the dark!
This is a very UNIQUE hand made and sculptured KURIPE from the "Sacred / Power Animal" series, with eyes GLOWING IN THE DARK; a self-applicator for shamanic tobacco snuff from Amazon, known as Rapé, often used in shamanic ceremonies.
HOW IT'S MADE
I use only natural bamboo, which is always polished and nicely finished (also inside! to allow smooth passage of the snuff). The ends are also sanded, so that they fit well into the nostrils and to enable easy pick up of the snuff powder. Every applicator is also varnished at the end, to strengthen it further and protect the artwork.
The parts are joined by non-toxic wood glue and then reinforced, in this case with the highest quality polymer clay. The same clay was used to create the jaguar head. At the end I also attached to it a long, natural leather string and made it into a necklace, which is particularly useful for regular users, who always like to have their Kuripe at hand, or for shamanic ceremonies held in the dark, where it could be difficult to find it.
*Note - we can probably make any animal you like, if you have a special request, please ask! :)
SIZE
All Kuripe pipes I make are kind of universal size, I've never had anyone come back to me and say it doesn't fit. However, we have to appreciate that we are all different and have different anatomy, so for example, if you have narrow/wide nostrils and would like the bamboo thiner/wider, then please put that in a comment when you place your order; some customers do that and I always do my best to accommodate their requests.
