Floral Birdhouse Gourd

These natural birdhouse gourds are a perfect house for your feathered friends to build their nest. Traditional and modern techniques have been reflected in this birdhouse: pyrographic, painting and carving. Each birdhouse gourd starts with a natural gourd that was hand picked, dried, painted, carved and varnished to resist weather conditions. After a few seasons it will decompose naturally and return to Mother Earth. The gourd's artistic expression dates back over 3,000 years and the artform is carried down from generation to generation. Every birdhouse gourd is one of a kind due to its shape, size and handmade design.
