Set of authentically handmade miniature blowgun (cerbaton) and darts. These fine objects were meticulously made by Jose Villa, Ticuna. The blowgun is cuma seba and apewa painted with black resin. It is wrapped with chambira. On some of the blowguns, the resin is still sticky.
The darts are carefully carved of apewa. They have algodón nativo cotton buds at the ends. Moisten the cotton a bit before blowing them through the cerbaton. Jose Villa says they all should work!
