  • Gourds are typically very light in weight, especially once the inside has been cleaned out like this piece. You can weigh it down by gently placing a rock inside of it if desired. In some cases I have sanded it fairly flat on the bottom, however, it’s best to use a stand to display it to give it stability.

     

    Tips to care for your gourd art:

     

    Hours are spent cleaning each gourd prior to applying a design. Then, the finest dyes, stains, paints, and varnishes are used to create a high-quality and durable finish. Nevertheless, please keep in mind these important points:

    • Never use a flame in the gourd. If a candle is desired, use flameless.
    • Avoid exposure to direct sunlight to reduce the possibility of fading or discoloration. Even with the best finishes with UV filters, colors may fade.
    • Do not expose the gourd to the weather.
    • Handle the gourd as you would china or glassware – gourds can crack or break if dropped or subjected to impact.
    • Use a soft lint-free cloth to lightly dust the surface of the gourd. Do not use water or household cleaning chemicals.
    • Interior surfaces tend to be rougher in texture, and will collect dust. Gently blow out the interior periodically – you can use a can of compressed air such as those intended for cleaning computer keyboards.
