At the center, there are intentionally hand painted icaru patterns that represent the visions of the spirit vine and songs in Shipibo culture. The patterns are painted over sustainably sourced lamb bone (harvested from leftover human food). The giver's end is made of the  sacred ayahuasca wood, that invokes the spirit of mother earth. The receiver's end is made of carved redwood (palo sangre), a sacred wood from the Amazon.
