Handmade Maté Tea Set With Gourd & Straw

The maté gourd was originally made by the Guarani people of South America. It is made from a calabash squash, which varies in shape and possesses a hard shell.

Maté tea is half filled into the gourd with hot water and sipped through a Metal Strained Straw called the Bombilla. This set was handmade by Uruguayan artisans in Montevideo.
