Our Standard Bottle gourds will be a great addition to your gourd collection if you don't mind a few imperfections. 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 birdhouses, holiday figurines, lamps, etc. The possibilities are endless!
Every Welburn Gourd is naturally grown, making each one unique. We grade our gourds based on structural integrity and workable surface. Not shell color.

If you are not 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. Shipping is not included in the refund.
