Details

This little owl deserves a place on your desk because he is so curious to know what you are doing. Decorative containers made from dried mate gourds have a centuries-old history in Peru. Daniel Vargas' take on this is an owl motif, with a small wood knob to open the top as well as one to serve as the beak.

The natural shape of the gourd dictates size and shape, so slight variations should be expected.
