HANDMADE PORCELAIN - The Yerba Crew Handmade starter kit comes with 1 Azul Orbita handmade porcelain gourd, 1 Silver Stainless steel bombilla, 1 Cleaning brush, 1 complimentary gourd sleeve, and maybe some extra goodies
A UNIQUE COLLAB - Each handmade mate gourd is unique due to the production style of our collaborator Ildikó Károlyi. We use the design as a guideline but allow for a 15% difference in styling between each cup to allow for the cups to form naturally as they are being turned and shaped.
THE AZUL ORBITA NAME - This beautiful porcelain mate gourd represents the earth spinning in the solar system orbiting the sun. The interior of the gourd resembles the multiple starts sparkling as far as we can see.
At Yerba Crew, we have a passion for beauty in simplicity, whether the simplicity is design, production processes, or usage. We were immediately drawn to Ildikó Károlyi’s beautiful stoneware and ceramic work, specifically the mates for yerba. The rawness, simplicity, and beauty behind taking clay, and using your hands with basic equipment and fire to create such a high quality product that can be used for a lifetime is an awesome connection between human and the earth beneath us.
