Shown here, Phoebe Welburn with Welburn's prized Canteen Gourds.
So named for its resemblance to a water canteen, the Welburn Canteen gourd is well known for its extremely thick shell and beautiful, symmetrical shape.
If you do any type of deep carving work on gourds, you’ll love working on the thick-shelled Welburn Canteen gourd! These very symmetrical gourds are prized among gourd artists.

Gourds are a natural product and every gourd is different. Some have natural shell markings and there may be slight imperfections or small blemishes in an inconspicuous area, but they are still fabulous gourds!
"I have placed several gourd orders with you over the last few months. Every single gourd has been of exceptional quality. Each one has been thick, evenly proportioned, and has had a beautiful, smooth surface. Your gourds are by far the best available, and your customer service is outstanding! I would not buy from anyone else. The high quality of your gourds makes them a joy to work with, and each of my customers has been thrilled! Thanks so much!!" -Cathy Whitehead, R.I.
