This wearable piece of art incorporates blue (water) resin into palosanto, reminding the wearer of the power of its medicine. While carrying out your daily activities, know you are held and protected. Rupashka means something that is burned in Kichwa, reflecting the way Palosanto is traditionally used.
The elements of nature come together through Bone & Quill, created by mestizo-indigenous artist Marcos Arcentales.
Palosanto sourced by the artisan himself, is crafted into one-of-a-kind accessories, melded with copper and silver. Each piece has its own unique personality.
