{"product_id":"the-grand-achik-canteen-forest-gourd-vessel","title":"The Grand A·chik Canteen — Forest Gourd Vessel","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA naturally cured forest gourd from the Garo Hills of Meghalaya, bound with hand-split rattan and cane in the way it's been done for generations. The shape isn't designed — it's grown. The gourd is left to reach its full size on the vine, then harvested, sun-cured, and reinforced with a woven lattice that holds the form and adds structure. The rind is smooth to the touch; the cane is rough. That contrast is the whole piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eThe A·chik canteen was originally a water vessel — carried through forest trails by Garo farmers. This version is scaled up as a floor or table sculpture, but the craft is identical. 100% plant-based, 100% biodegradable, made the same way it was made centuries ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e15.5 × 9 in (39 × 23 cm) · 87 g · Naturally cured forest gourd · Hand-split rattan and cane bindings · Garo Hills, Meghalaya, India\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,3,0\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WILLAGE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42140799795303,"sku":"WLG-VESSEL-ACHIK-001","price":145.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/7373\/1687\/files\/WILLAGE_Grand_Achik_Canteen_Gourd_Vessel_Main..jpg?v=1775364682","url":"https:\/\/willage.life\/products\/the-grand-achik-canteen-forest-gourd-vessel","provider":"WILLAGE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
