These Standard Tall-Body gourds will be a great addition to your gourd collection if you don't mind a few imperfections, or love a gourd with character. They may have small cracks, scarring, and other shell blemishes which make each gourd unique. They are great for carving and customers often turn them into vases, figurines, lamps, etc. The possibilities are endless, and we've provided you with some art inspiration below!

Our gourds are known for their lovely, natural markings. These are NOT considered shell blemishes but are part of the natural beauty of the gourd.

Please Note: The photos are meant as a general representation of the shapes of gourds you can expect to receive. Because gourds are a natural product, they are not guaranteed to sit flat and may have a round bottom (this is especially common in Tall-Body gourds). You can use a Metal Gourd Stand to help display any gourds with a rounded bottom.

Tall-Body Gourds are characterized by their elongated shape, with a body that is taller than it is wide (the body refers to the area below the neck). This makes them an excellent choice for creating vases or artwork that requires a taller, more vertical surface for your design.

As with all our gourds, Tall-Body gourds are measured by their width at the widest point, rather than by their height.

Our Tall-Body gourds come in sizes 5"-6.9" and 7"-8.9" only.

Gourd sizing chart

Shown above, Gourd Sizing Board

 

*Please note: Gourds will be bigger than the size shown on the sizing board because there is a range from one size hole to the next. For example, a gourd that sits on the 9-inch ring and passes through the 10-inch ring on our sizing board is priced as a 9-inch gourd, even though it could be as big as 9.9 inches. Watch our Gourds 101 video to see how we price our gourds. Gourds are sized by their diameter, which is the widest point of the gourd straight across.

Because gourds are a natural product, these may have a slightly asymmetrical shape, or shell blemishes in an inconspicuous area, but they are still fabulous gourds! If you are not completely satisfied, simply return the entire box for a full refund within 30 days!*

*For Pre-Boxed gourds, refunds are given on the entire box, not individual gourds. Sorry, we cannot refund individual gourds from a Pre-boxed group because the price reduction offered on these boxes (as compared to Custom Order gourds) is based on the group of gourds as a whole.
