The tepi is a ceremonial tool used to administer rapeh, a sacred jungle snuff for grounding, opening, and cleansing. This tepi is made by traditional artisans of Peru. The wood used is Palo Sangre (blood wood in English), a high quality and sacred wood of the Amazon. The piece also features the quills of the porcupine, which represents protection and good luck, and gemstones. 
 Size and accents may vary slightly from listing. The proceeds from these sales go directly back to the artisans of the jungle, to support their craft and lifestyles.
