Nowadays, it is used as a lucky charm for good health and as a decorative item. There is a legend that a long time ago, when a son made a gourd drink water from Yoro Falls (Gifu) for his father who was suffering from illness, his illness was cured. It is also said that gourds are likened to humans; no two are the same, they are round and have no corners, and they are empty and have no bellies. Please make gourds, which are such lucky charms, as souvenirs and gifts. Prices vary depending on the shape and size of mini gourds (approx. 5cm in height), straight gourds (approx. 25cm in height), and others.
