A classic yerba mate drinking gourd presented in a decorative metal stand, inspired by the traditional vessels used throughout South America for preparing and sharing Yerba Mate.

The natural gourd body features a woven textile band with geometric patterns in black, red, and tan, giving the piece a rustic artisanal character. A polished metal rim reinforces the top edge, while the sculptural wire stand cradles the cup and elevates it for both practical use and attractive display.

Mate gourds like this are traditionally used with a metal straw called a bombilla, allowing the drinker to sip the infused leaves while they remain in the cup. Whether used for enjoying mate the traditional way or displayed as part of a cultural kitchen collection, this piece carries the warm, earthy charm of South American tea traditions.

Condition Notes

Pre-owned piece with light cosmetic wear consistent with normal handling. Exterior gourd and woven band remain intact, and the metal stand holds the cup securely. Please review photos for details.
