A kuripe is a traditional self-applicator used for working with rapéh (rapeh); a sacred medicine traditionally used throughout parts of the Amazon for prayer, grounding, focus, cleansing, and connection.
More than simply an object, the kuripe is a ceremonial tool.
Something used intentionally.
With prayer.
With respect for the traditions and medicines it is connected to.
Each kuripe in our collection is handmade in Peru and sourced through Hugo and his family in Pisac, who have spent many years providing traditional medicines, ceremonial tools, and artisan work to their local community and to those walking this path with sincerity.
This Kuripe is made from Serpentine which has been sourced in the proximity of Cuzco, Peru.
The serpentine around Cuzco is black in colour whereas that of the North is more green.
This serpentine carving represents the puma (the animal of the middle world in the Andean cosmovision).
Traditionally, kuripes are used as part of a personal ceremonial practice, supporting moments of prayer, stillness, grounding, intention, and clearing.
Not as a trend.
Not as performance.
But as a relationship built over time with the medicine and the space it is worked within.
Each piece is handmade individually, carrying its own variations in grain, carving, colour, and detail.
No two are exactly the same.
Perfect for:
Personal rapéh ceremony
Prayer & meditation practices
Altar spaces
Grounding & intentional ritual work
These tools are sourced in small quantities and chosen carefully through relationship with the families and makers who continue these traditions today.
