Sacred Kuripes (Application Tubes) – Handcrafted Bone Designs
Connect Deeply with the Spirit of Rapé

Elevate your sacred Rapé practice with our exquisitely handcrafted Kuripes. More than just an application tool, a Kuripe is a sacred instrument for connection—to the medicine, to your intentions, and to the ancient wisdom of the forest. Each tube in our «Bone Designs» collection is a unique piece of art, meticulously carved from natural bone, honoring the traditional methods of the Amazon.

Our Kuripes are specifically designed for self-application, creating a gentle and precise bridge to receive the healing power of Rapé.

Key Features & Artisan Craftsmanship:

Sacred & Natural Materials: Each Kuripe is crafted from ethically sourced, solid bone (typically bovine), a traditional material chosen for its durability, smooth energy, and connection to the animal spirit, representing strength and grounding.

Unique Hand-Carved Designs: No two Kuripes are exactly alike. Artisans carefully etch beautiful, traditional geometric patterns, symbols, and motifs inspired by Amazonian cosmology. Your Kuripe is a one-of-a-kind work of sacred art.

Ergonomic & Comfortable Fit: The gentle, curved design is crafted to fit snugly between your nostril and the applicator’s mouth, ensuring an airtight seal for a smooth and efficient application without discomfort.

Honoring Tradition: By choosing a bone Kuripe, you are participating in a centuries-old tradition. This supports indigenous and mestizo artisanship and helps preserve these cultural practices.

A Personal Ritual Tool: This is not a mass-produced item. It is a personal ritual object that carries the intention and energy of the craftsman. We recommend dedicating your Kuripe to your practice with clear intention and respect.

How To Use Your Bone Kuripe:

Place a small amount of Rapé powder into the wider end (the V-shaped funnel).

Gently place the curved end into one nostril, creating a light seal.

Place the mouthpiece to your lips.

With a steady, moderate breath, blow the medicine into your own nasal passage.

Sit quietly, breathe deeply through your nose, and allow the medicine to work.

Important Notes & Care:

Cleansing: Before first use, we recommend cleansing your Kuripe. You can leave it in sunlight for a few hours, pass it through sacred smoke (like Palo Santo), or gently wipe the exterior with a soft cloth. Do not submerge it in water or use liquids for cleaning internally; instead, use a dry pipe cleaner or a soft brush to remove any residue.

Intention: This is a sacred tool for ceremonial use. Please treat it with the reverence it deserves.

Personal Item: For reasons of hygiene and energy, a Kuripe is typically considered a personal item, not to be shared.
