This handcrafted kuripe is a one-of-a-kind bamboo rapé self-applicator featuring chrysotile serpentine accents set within a sculpted body. Each piece is individually made using bamboo and carefully selected materials, creating a functional tool that is also a small work of art. The rounded body is finished in layered earth tones that give the piece a natural, stone-like appearance. Two chrysotile serpentine stones are set vertically into the front of the kuripe, introducing soft green mineral tones that contrast with the warm body colours. Natural bamboo forms the structure of the kuripe, keeping the piece lightweight while providing a strong and durable base for the sculpted body and stone elements. Kuripes are traditionally used as self-applicators for rapé (hapé), a finely powdered sacred tobacco used in various Amazonian traditions. This piece is offered simply as a handcrafted tool made with respect for those traditions. Because each kuripe is handmade and incorporates natural stone, small variations in colour and texture are part of the character of the piece.
