Set Of 2 Industria Argentina Yerba Mate Tea

Rare vintage set of Argentina Yerba Mate Gourd Cups with 18k gold-tipped bombilla straws is a unique addition to your Latin American collectibles. They are crafted with traditional techniques and showcase the culture of Argentina. The cup is made for drinking mate, a traditional caffeine-rich infused drink popular in South America. The gourds have intricate metal detailing and each is unique. One has a footed base. The bottoms are stamped with “Industria Argentina”. The bombilla straws are also unique and have gold tips with an 18k stamp. Please see photos for details and measurements.
The set has been previously owned and is well-maintained. Our family has owned these for a very long time but we are not aware of the cups ever being used. This set can be a great addition for collectors or someone who wants to enjoy mate in a traditional way. Get a piece of Argentina's culture and enjoy your mate with these vintage gourd cups and straws.
