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

Hibiscus tiliaceus, also known as Waru, Sea Hibiscus, or hau, is a tropical plant from the mallow family, naturally found in many coastal regions of the tropical and subtropical zones. In traditional craftsmanship, it is valued for wood with a natural, warm character, good durability, and a pleasant structure.

Waru wood is used to create functional, decorative, and ceremonial objects. It has a natural, organic appearance, works well with hand processing, and allows for a smooth, pleasant-to-touch finish. This makes it suitable as a material for Kuripe - a personal ceremonial pipe with a unique character.

The "STANDING OWL" model was created for people who feel connected to the symbolism of mindfulness, silence, observation, and inner wisdom. The owl has long been associated with intuition, the ability to see what is hidden, calm presence, and looking deeper than the surface of things.

The standing form of the owl emphasizes stability, alertness, and presence. It is a symbol of a being that does not act chaotically, but observes, senses the right moment, and responds when it is truly needed. Combined with Waru wood, it creates an object with a calm, natural, and highly conscious energy.

Each Kuripe is handmade, so individual pieces may slightly differ in grain pattern, wood tone, details, and finish. This is what gives every product its own individual character and makes it far from a mass-produced item.
