Snake Gourd Artwork

All snakes shown here are sold.

Created for our son, this gourd immediately reminded us of images of a cobra.

Cobra Gourd

You know we liked it
since it was a birthday
present for our son.

Too many classes at the University of Florida in ancient cultures left a lasting impression on Ann, the result is this egyptian themed snake.


Egyptian Snake

Too many classes in ancient cultures
probably left a subconscious affect,
but geometrics and an egyptian feel
work well on this snake gourd.

Inspired by the little green

Ann has always loved geometrics and it shows
in this snake artwork.

Here at the farm black snakes are
a valuable creature. If they aren't adorned
with gold they should be.

his back makes a nice accent.

Black and silver diamond back rattlesnake

Black and Silver Diamond Back

All snake gourds used this way are natural rattles. Thus it
seemed natural to make a diamond backed rattlesnake.
But Ann almost never puts mouths on her snakes so we
assure the children they don't bite!

Slither the snake is a child's delight, a snake without a mouth but still rattles!

"Slither the Snake"

A child's delight, this snake has no mouth but rattles when shaken. Wonderful colors.

Snakes are a wonderful part of Edisto and these snakes won't bite!

"Green sun snake"
is a whimsical snake that will
rattle when shaken and star
in your decor.
