Canteen Gourd is one of Welburn's most popular shapes. The Canteen gourd has become increasingly more popular because it has such a beautiful, nearly perfectly symmetrical shape and a smooth shell that is extremely thick.

The thick shell allows you to carve into it using a Dremel tool or Gourd drill, as shown left, without fear of putting a hole through your gourd. Pictured Left, this beautiful gourd by Carrie Dearing has the leaves carved in relief and was made with a thick-shelled Welburn Canteen gourd.
