Musicians corner

Gourds and calabashes have been used for ages all around the world to make musical instruments. You will find here the gourds you can use to realize the main existing instruments coming from the 5 continents of our planet.

Since 10 years La Case à Gourdes has met and worked with hundreds of musicians who advised us on the shape selection and the quality of gourds they were seeking to make their instruments. We are proud to propose you today gourds from France, Mali and Kenya suitable for most of your projects !

The classification by type of instruments will directly lead you to the selected gourds so you can fast and easily find the shapes you need.

PAY ATTENTION : WE ONLY SELL THE GOURDS NOT THE INSTRUMENTS !!!
