Red Gourd Birdhouse from Peru

This large red birdhouse, made from a gourd, is both warm and welcoming for a new bird family to make its home.  Hang the birdhouse outside your home's windows, then sit back and watch the bird family. 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.

Handmade, carved, and etched by artisans in Peru and Fair Trade imported.
