    This is a 2 inch tall silver metal footed pot.

    It has embossed flower above and below a black plastic band.

    There is a spoon on one and and what appears to be a screw driver on the other end.

    No markings.

    Found this at a garage sale-- curiosity set in.

    Can anyone identify?

    Thank you

      It's a Yerba mate gourd and bombilla.

      Thank you.

      This one seems to be very small.
      It does not feel like a gourd, feels like plastic.

      Semantics... The gourd mate can be made of pure gold if you like, it's not always made of a dried fruit pod...

      I didn't do it, TrueAmp did, I just found an example. :)

      Well I never did - I learn something every day here. A "Yerba mate[sic] gourd and bombilla".
      Do you really think the black band is made of plastic?
    8. Gillian, 8 years ago
      Looking through Dizzy's link, I think I'll stick to Tetley.

      Gillian,

      Yes, I think the band is plastic. It is also much smaller than those pictured.
