Raw Shea butter is worth protecting on the way to you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat we do sell is empty containers, so you can decant however much you actually use and leave the rest sealed and fresh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✨ \u003cstrong\u003eEmpty calabash bowl.\u003c\/strong\u003e A real fruit, grown, dried and hollowed by hand.

It grew on a tree in northern Ghana, was cut, hollowed, cleaned and dried in the sun until the shell hardened into something you could pass down.

Some are pale sand, some closer to leather brown. Most carry spots, streaks, or faint marks where the shell grew against a branch.
