This special edition 'Alto-Relievo' style set of 7 Peruvian Chumpi Stones is associated with the mountains in the Sacred Valley near Cusco in Peru. Alto-Relievo or high-relief, is a classical form of sculpture where images protrude from the background. Chumpi stones are ancient healing stones that are used by some shamanic practitioners as rites of passage and in their ceremonial healings. Q'ero shamans believe that each mountain has its own spirit, which is represented in each of these seven stones. These are magnificent high-relief, hand-carved, alabaster stones. Each stone measures approximately 2-3 inches in size.
Each features an intricatelly detailed rendering of a traditional Peruvian motif carved into its surface. Use in ceremony or as artes on your altar cloth/mesa. Comes with a beautiful Mestana (each cloth is unique and will vary from the cloth shown), beaded Watana (tie), and rattle. Note: Due to the handmade nature of the rattles, Watana ties, and Mestana cloths they may vary in color or style from photo.
The chumpi khuyas are carriers sacred energy. They are connected to the Apus (mountains) of Peru and have been used in shamanic ceremonies in the Andes for centuries. They are used by the Q'ero peoples of the high Andes and shamanic practioners to convey bands of power and other rites of their lineage.
This set includes the following carvings on the stone:
