Hand-carved. One of a kind.

Gourd sounds like “blessing” in the old language. Since ancient times, it has carried wishes: blessing and wealth, long life, protection from harm. The opening lid adds another meaning: “gathering good fortune, holding luck close.” A small blessing to carry with you. Made by hand — small, precise, the lid opening smoothly, fitting perfectly.

Use it many ways: add a drop of essential oil and wear it as a personal scent; wear it as a pendant, and carry its blessing wherever you go. Small in the hand, warm to the touch — good for quiet moments.

Title

Opening Gourd
Hand-carved by the heritage workshop. The old meaning of gourd — blessing — made small, made portable. A tiny thing holding great feeling.

Material

Three precious woods to choose from:
Boxwood: fine and warm, colour like soft jade
Red sandalwood: dense, dark, grain quiet and elegant
Golden-nanmu: gold in the grain, faint fragrance in the wood
Each material brings its own beauty, its own nature.
