Each rustic cross is made from the sacred wood of the chonta palm tree or Chonta Duro. Shamans have been known to use the sharp long spikes found on chonta tree trunks as "darts" to take out evil spirits which cause illness. The staffs carried by some Shamans are also made of chonta wood. This cross makes a great piece for your altar, sacred space or to use as part of your despacho offerings.Sold individually.

Our huayruro seeds come pre-drilled with a hole lengthwise through the middle for use in stringing. They can also be used in ceremony. The name "Huayruro" derives from the seed of the Huayruro plant ( Ormosia sp ) that grows in the Amazon rainforest. This seed is characterized by being part red and part black, visually suggesting complementary and duality.
