Munay Serpiente Black Ceramic Incense Stick Holder
Description+
The serpent teaches us to transform. In the Andean worldview the serpent (Amaru) is the guardian of the Uku Pacha, the world below and within: the earth, the ancestors, the origins and the invisible forces of life. Because it sheds its skin, it is a symbol of transformation, regeneration and renewal: the wisdom of returning to the roots.
This is the long holder of Munay’s Andean Trilogy, designed for incense sticks with a bamboo core: its elongated shape invites the eye to follow the path of the smoke, and the ash falls along the piece.
Its deep black evokes the polished black pottery of the pre-Inca Chimú culture of Peru’s north coast. Munay does not reproduce an archaeological piece: it reinterprets the visual language of ancient Peru with a contemporary design.
