Authentic Kuripe Pipes for Rapé

Looking for an authentic Kuripe pipe for administering rapé? These beautifully handcrafted applicators are made by skilled artisans from the Amazonian tribes of Acre, Brazil. Each Kuripe is a traditional shamanic tool, deeply rooted in indigenous ceremony and used to self-administer rapé (also spelled hapé) — a sacred blend of herbs, ashes, and jungle tobacco.

Kuripe pipes are made from natural, sustainable materials such as bamboo, Cumaru wood, seeds, bone, and vines. Unlike commercial imitations, genuine tribal Kuripes are never crafted from glass or crystal — materials not used in ancestral traditions.

Functionally, a Kuripe is a personal snuff applicator. Its V-shaped design allows for the precise, self-directed flow of rapé into the nostrils, creating a moment of deep grounding, energetic clearing, and inner alignment.

This sacred ritual remains a cornerstone of spiritual life in many Amazonian cultures. As rapé use spreads globally, honoring the integrity of this tradition — and the artisans who preserve it — is more important than ever.
