Authentic Shipibo-Conibo Embroidered Vest

This shipibo hand-embroidered vest features intricate geometric designs (Kené) that are visual representations of healing songs (icaros) and visions experiences during medicine ceremonies on the back.  The front of the vest includes stitched chacruna vine which holds deep spiritual significance in Amazonian shamanism, primarily as a crucial "plant teacher" in plant brews, acting as the visionary component that unlocks profound spiritual insights, connections to nature, healing, and understanding of the cosmos, embodying the spirit of the jungle and offering guidance for spiritual growth and cleansing

A message from the Artisan:

Hello, good day. My name is Sully, and I am from the Shipibo-Conibo ethnic group. I was born in the native community of Puerto Consuelo, but I currently live in the native community of San Salvador.

The women of my tribe are dedicated to making handicrafts with embroidered fabrics and also with ancestral seeds. We teach the girls of my tribe to embroider from a very young age. It is a hobby for many girls, and for boys it is fishing. My ancestors were shamans, dedicated to ancestral medicine. Many of our older women were doctors, and thanks to them, we grew up healthy and safe. As a child, I suffered from an illness that was said to be incurable in the community, but thanks to our plants, I am now healthy and safe. I am very happy and grateful because I can teach and share many of our customs with more people.

 

All orders are lovingly wrapped in 100% recyclable paper and shipped in sustainable, eco-friendly packaging.

We walk in humble partnership with the indigenous tribes and communities who entrust us with their sacred medicines.

Through our give back program, we return a portion of all proceeds directly to the families, elders, and tribal nations we work with. This is not charity but sacred exchange—a recognition that true healing flows when we honor the source.

Your purchase becomes part of this living circle, supporting indigenous sovereignty, community wellbeing, and the preservation of ancestral wisdom that has blessed humanity for countless generations.
