Opis produktu
Gourd (cuia) decorated "Amor" 200 ml
A beautifully decorated cup intended primarily for the finely ground Brazilian mate called chimarrao. The cuia is made from a gourd, but its shape differs from the classic Argentinian calabaza, as it comes from a different part of the plant, closer to the stem - hence its distinctive hourglass shape. Thanks to its size, it is an ideal choice for those who want to fully enjoy the charms and long-lasting nature of chimarrao throughout the day.
Brazilians have loved Chimarrao since time immemorial, and these cups were used even before the European conquistadors arrived in South America. They remain very popular today, and many Brazilians cannot imagine life without their cuia and their favourite finely ground mate, chimarrao.
The "Amor" gourd (cuia) is a natural cup of fairly large capacity (approx. 200 ml) made from a gourd fruit, with a metal base glued on that keeps the matero stable. There are also versions in which the cuia consists of two parts: the cup and a stand. This one is a single-piece version. Made by the Brazilian brand Arte Couro.
In the centre there is a laser-engraved inscription in Portuguese, "Pra nos, todo o amor do mundo", which loosely translates as "for us, all the love in the world". The cup is decorated all around. It has a burnt rim, which makes everyday use (drying) of this part of the cup easier.
Before first use, we recommend pouring boiling water into it and leaving it for 1-2 h, or - the more recommended option - preparing an aromatic mixture: mate + any herbs (mint, lemongrass, etc.) poured into the cup and covered with boiling water, then left in the cup for 1-2 h as before. After that, empty the cup, rinse out the mate residue thoroughly, wipe the inside with a paper towel and leave it to dry for 1 day.
Important note on use: after each day of use, the cuia needs time to dry - ideally 24 hours to get rid of all moisture. If you forget about this, mould can appear in the cup quite quickly and it will no longer be usable. Dry the cup in its normal position - do not turn it upside down and do not put it away in places without air circulation (e.g. cupboards).
Only the one piece shown is available - do not wait too long.
