Hand-Carved Serpent Knot Kuripe
These beautiful kuripes are hand crafted from a single block of wood. They are strong, durable and high vibration pieces for serving oneself hapé and beautiful symbols while standing on your alter in between ceremony.
Each piece is lovingly crafted by artisan Kupi HuniKui from hand-harvested bamboo — carefully carved with epoxy, then hand-painted and varnished with dedication and care.
Every kuripé and tepi carries the energy of the forest and Kupi’s heart prayers, created to accompany your sacred moments with harmony and good spirit. ✨🌿
Kupi HuniKui was born in a village along the Muru River, deep in the Amazon rainforest, among the Huni Kui people.
From a young age, he was guided by the songs, prayers, and mysteries of the forest, carrying within him the living heritage of his ancestors and the calling to become a man of medicine.
Today, Kupi dedicates himself fully to the path of art, study, and spiritual dietas, expressing his sacred connection through music, painting, sculpture, and the creation of ceremonial instruments such as tepis, maracás, and headdresses.
Each piece he makes is a prayer — a bridge between worlds, translating the voice of the forest into art and beauty.
On his journey of learning, Kupi has undergone various dietas and studies with different peoples and sacred medicines, including ibogaine, wachuma, ayahuasca, kambô, hapé, and tobacco, walking with discipline, courage, and devotion in each step of his training.
He is also committed to English studies and advanced therapies, preparing himself to represent his people internationally with truth, balance, and wisdom.
In this new phase of his path, Kupi is also pursuing studies in frequencies and electronic sounds, seeking to unite ancestral chants with modern sound technologies that can expand the medicine of music and vibrational healing.
Anyone who feels called to support his journey is welcome to contribute to his studies, travels, and formation — an offering that nurtures not only one man but the continuation of an ancient lineage of forest wisdom @hauxlove

Kuripe
Kuripe (Hapé Applicator) Offering
A Kuripe is a special blowpipe made to self administer hapé, whereas the Tepi facilitates a two-person ritual. Use of the Kuripe helps you develop your personal relationship with the beautiful grandfather medicine that is hapé.
Every Kuripe we offer is a work of art, reflecting the cultural and spiritual essence of its makers.
Welcome to our sacred collection of authentic, handcrafted Kuripé pipes (also traditionally referred to as kuripes, karipes, or self-applicators). As our most popular and sought-after ceremonial tools, each Kuripé in our selection is ethically sourced and hand-carved by master artisans and indigenous craftsmen from the Amazon basin.
Whether you are looking to buy your very first Kuripé or seeking a unique, masterfully carved piece to deepen your practice, our collection features a diverse range of materials—including animal totem kuripés, hand-carved kuripés, bone kuripés, bamboo kuripés, and crystal-adorned kuripés. Explore our authentic kuripes for sale and find the perfect companion to align your breath, focus, and spirit.
What is a Kuripé and how does it work? ▼
A Kuripé is a small, V-shaped blowpipe used specifically for the self-administration of Hapé powder (grandfather ethnobotanical powder mixed with a different combination of other sacred plant specimens). The unique, sacred geometry of the V-shape connects your mouth directly to your nostril.
By placing one end of the pipe in your mouth and the other in your nostril, you use your own breath (representing Prana, or life-force energy) to blow the powder into your nasal passages. This allows you to control the force, volume, and timing of the application, making it the ideal tool for personal, daily, or solitary ceremonial practices.
What is the difference between a Kuripé and a Tepi? ▼
While both are sacred instruments used to administer Hapé, they serve entirely different ceremonial roles:
- Kuripé (Self-Applicator): A compact, V-shaped pipe designed for self-use. It is highly personal and represents self-reliance, self-healing, and direct connection to the medicine.
- Tepi (Shared Applicator): A much longer, straight or curved pipe used by a practitioner to blow Hapé into another person's nostrils. The Tepi represents a sacred energetic exchange, trust, and transmission between the giver and the receiver.
If you facilitate ceremonies or work with partners, explore our handcrafted Tepi Applicator Collection to complement your personal Kuripé.
What materials are Kuripes made from? ▼
The material of your Kuripé influences both its physical durability and its energetic resonance. Our collection features pipes made from several traditional materials:
- Sacred Woods (Chonta, Palo Santo): Highly durable and grounding. Chonta wood is traditionally used in the Amazon for its protective qualities, while Palo Santo adds a sweet, purifying energetic signature.
- Bamboo: Lightweight, natural, and highly traditional. Bamboo represents flexibility, strength, and a clean, unobstructed flow of breath.
- Animal Bone: Often carved from ethically sourced bone, representing ancestral connection, deep forest wisdom, and the transition of life.
- Crystal & Resin Adornments: Many of our pipes are decorated with sacred stones (like Turquoise, Amethyst, or Tiger's Eye) and tribal resin art to amplify specific intentions and chakra alignments.
How do you clean and maintain a Kuripé pipe? ▼
Because your Kuripé is a sacred ceremonial tool that comes into contact with moisture and herbal powders, proper care is essential to maintain its hygiene and longevity:
- Clear Excess Powder: After every use, gently tap the pipe to remove any remaining Hapé powder. You can blow through it empty to clear the airway.
- Clean the Airway: Periodically run a thin, flexible pipe cleaner or wire through the V-channel to remove any buildup.
- Sanitize Safely: Wipe the mouth and nose tips with a tiny amount of high-proof alcohol or natural tea tree oil. Avoid submerging wooden or bamboo pipes in water, as this can cause warping or cracking.
- Energetic Clearing: Pass your Kuripé through the smoke of sacred Mapacho tobacco, Palo Santo, or Sage to clear accumulated energies between ceremonies.
