Red Gourd Ornament w/ Etched Birds from Peru

Description

The "Red Bird" is a loved bird and has made its way into many songs and poems. "I've been dreaming of a red bird, and the peace of its gentle wings, it's an omen of better things....". Hang these red birds in your house; we hope that they will make your home more peaceful and bring you lovely things."

Gourd Carving is a traditional craft of the high Andean Mountains of Peru. Each gourd is skinned, cleaned, and sun-dried before artisans etch and burn the intricate designs that adorn its surface. Gourds are also a natural and uniquely shaped vegetable, similar to a pumpkin or a squash. As such, designs, shape and dimensions will vary slightly.

  • Measures approximately 2” high x 2-1/2” diameter

Handmade, carved, and etched by artisans in Peru and fair trade imported.
