Add a whimsical touch to your home's decor with this pair of handmade owl gourds.
This decorative pair of owls is handmade and hand painted by Peruvian artisans from the Sierra region. Artists hand select native mate gourds, then carefully sculpt them using various sized chisels. The mate comes in different shapes and sizes making each piece a truly original work of art.
Mate gourds are the oldest and most traditional examples of Peruvian crafts. The Mate (legenaria vulgaris) grows on a climbing plant that thrives in the dry warm regions of the valleys and lower eastern slopes of the Andes. Because of the conditions, the mate gourd's shell becomes as hard as wood.
