Calabaza Negro con virola aluminio

Calabaza Negro con virola aluminio

Mate-Cup from Argentina made of pumpkin.

Simple and ideal for the daily use. The upper part is surrounded with aluminium.

While using the mate-cup a discolouration of the pumkin takes place. This is a natural process which occurs through the absorption of the tea.

Before the first use of the cup it should be "cured" in order to ensure a longer life.
Please make sure not to pour water up to the top edge when filling the Calabaza, as the metal ring is only placed on and not waterproof. Otherwise, this could lead to damage to the cup.
