Ceremonial Tep, good small L-shape blow pipe for Amazonian Rapé medicine, shamanic snuff applicator with Flower of Life, feathers and crystal

This is an L-Shaped CEREMONIAL TEPI / Tipi applicator for shamanic tobacco snuff from Amazon, known as Rapé, often used in shamanic ceremonies.

WHAT'S SPECIAL ABOUT THIS ONE?
This Tepi has a Flower of Life pattern embedded in it, gorgeous natural feathers and a crystal hanging, and has been decorated with beautiful ornaments, hand-burned into the bamboo.

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 with a clay. It was decorated with polymer clay, cotton twine, some natural feathers and then burned with a pyrography pen to create the beautiful ornaments. It also has a natural crystal* (type of crystal depends on the availability, if you have specific request, please let me know, I have usually quite large selection :) if you don't specify, I will peak what I will feel intuitively)

This Tepi is also available in a SET with Kuripe and tobacco tin (visible on the last picture), please check in the "sets" section of the shop.

SIZE
This Tepi is a small and handy size, about 20cm / 8 inches
(but if you'd like it bigger, I can make it any size)
