Gourd art is the oldest and most traditional example of Peruvian handicraft. The "mate" gourd grows on a climbing plant that thrives in the dry, warm regions of the Andes. The weather conditions of the Andes contribute to its hard shell, which is similar to wood. Subtle shade variations will occur from piece to piece, adding to its unique qualities. Measurements may vary slightly.
- Gourds Unmasked-- On this website is gourd art I have created. It includes masks, birdhouses, bowls, and odd creatures created from gourds. All works are original and created by K. Denise Wally.
