Handmade product.
Las Szamana is one of the few producers in Poland creating Tepi from this exceptional wood.

Manilkara kauki is a tree species from the Sapotaceae family, valued for its durable, dense, and aesthetically pleasing wood. It naturally occurs in tropical regions of South and Southeast Asia, and its wood has long been used in craftsmanship to create functional and decorative objects.
Sawo wood stands out for its good durability, pleasant smoothness after finishing, and natural, warm character. Thanks to its structure, it works well in hand craftsmanship and allows for the creation of solid, aesthetic, and comfortable objects for everyday use. In the case of Tepi, its stability and pleasant contact with the hand are also important.
The "LIONESS" model was created for people who feel connected to the symbolism of strength, protection, courage, and inner dignity. The lioness has long been associated with guardianship, leadership, instinct, calm self-confidence, and powerful heart energy.
The symbolism of the lioness is neither aggressive nor chaotic. It is a strength that knows when to act and when to observe. It is courage combined with wisdom, care, and loyalty to one’s pack, one’s space, and one’s own path. The lioness reminds us of a power that does not need to roar to be felt.
Combined with Sawo wood, this model gains a warm, natural, and noble character. The bright, harmonious energy of the wood works beautifully with the symbolism of feminine power, protection, and stability, creating a Tepi with an expressive yet calm presence.
Each Tepi is handmade, so individual pieces may slightly differ in shade, grain pattern, details, and finish. This is a natural feature of working with wood, making every product unique and giving it its own character.
