Handmade Bamboo Kuripé

✨ Handmade Bamboo Kuripé – A sacred, V-shaped applicator for self-administration of rapé (ha-pé). Crafted from natural bamboo, each piece is unique, lightweight, and made with reverence for ancestral tradition. 🌿

The kuripé is a traditional applicator used for self-administration of rapé (pronounced ha-pé), the sacred tobacco-based snuff of the Amazon. Hand-crafted from natural bamboo, each kuripé is a unique piece of functional art — lightweight, portable, and made with reverence for ancestral traditions.

✨ What is a Kuripé?

A kuripé is a small V-shaped pipe, traditionally carved from wood or bamboo, that allows the practitioner to blow rapé into their own nostrils. This sacred act is done with intention — to cleanse the mind, ground the spirit, and open energetic channels.

🪵 Why Bamboo?

• Sustainably harvested bamboo brings strength, lightness, and natural beauty.

• Handmade craftsmanship ensures every piece carries care, attention, and individuality.

• Smooth, durable finish designed for safe and repeated use.

🌬 How to Use

1. Sit comfortably in a quiet space and set your intention.

2. Place a small amount rapé in the palm of your hand. With the short end of the kuripé, smooth the rapé. Carefully place a small amount of rapé covering the hole of the shorter kuripé.

3. Position the shorter end gently inside one nostril, the longer end in your mouth.

4. With a steady and calm exhale, blow the medicine into your nostril. Repeat for the other side.

5. Remain present with the sensations — grounding, clarity, and connection to spirit.

⚠️ Important Note: Kuripés and rapé are sacred tools of Amazonian and Indigenous traditions. They should be used with respect, mindfulness, and intention. Not for casual or recreational use.
