This tapestry is hand-embroidered by Shipibo artisans from the Amazon Rainforest of Peru, featuring kené, the traditional geometric patterns that are at the heart of Shipibo art.
The flower shown on this piece is called toé. In Shipibo tradition, toé refers to a powerful plant spirit — most commonly associated with Brugmansia suaveolens, known in English as white angel’s trumpet. It is considered a sacred and intense master plant within Amazonian shamanic practices.
Master Teacher:
Toé is approached as a plant spirit with its own consciousness and power, not just a botanical species. In Shipibo and surrounding Amazonian cultures, plants are seen as sentient beings that can teach, heal, and guide.
Because of this, toé is considered a master plant — a plant with a deep and influential role in spiritual practice, often used by experienced healers (onanyas) to facilitate visions, spirit contact, and powerful transformation.
Measures Approximately: 8in
