Double Barrel Tepi – Kenê: A Fusion of Tradition and Precision

Inspired by Indigenous Kenê Patterns

Introducing the Double Barrel Tepi – Kenê, a beautifully handcrafted snuff applicator that merges the rich cultural heritage of the Amazon with practical functionality. This tepi is adorned with intricate Kenê designs—geometric patterns deeply rooted in the indigenous culture and mythology of the Amazonian tribes. These patterns, which represent the physical and spiritual beings of the forest, are meticulously burned into the bamboo using pyrography, creating a tool that is as visually stunning as it is effective.

Dual Application for Balanced Rituals

The double barrel design of this tepi allows for the simultaneous application of rapé to both nostrils, delivering a balanced and powerful experience with just a single blow. This feature is highly valued by practitioners who seek efficiency and symmetry in their rituals. The careful craftsmanship ensures that each application is smooth and consistent, enhancing the overall ritual experience.

Handcrafted by Tete Pawã Artisans

This Double Barrel Tepi – Kenê is crafted by the skilled artisans at the Tete Pawã arts and medicine studio, located deep in the upper Juruá region of Marechal Thaumaturgo municipality. These artisans, who have been our close partners since 2014, bring generations of knowledge and tradition to their work, creating tools that honor the sacred practices of the Amazonian peoples. Each tepi is unique, with slight variations that reflect the handcrafted nature of the product.

A Connection to the Sacred Harpy

The name Tete Pawã translates to “Harpy” in the Pano indigenous language, a reference to the largest bird of prey in the region, which is revered as a sacred and majestic being. In Huni Kuin mythology, the Harpy is an enchanted creature created by Yuxibu, the great spirit. This tepi not only serves a functional purpose but also connects the user to the spiritual and cultural traditions of the Amazon.

Embrace the Tradition of Kenê

The Double Barrel Tepi – Kenê is more than just a snuff applicator; it is a tool that carries the essence of the forest and the cosmic vision of its indigenous peoples. Whether used in personal rituals or as a symbolic piece in your collection, this tepi embodies the rich traditions and spiritual depth of the Amazon.
