Customization

Looking for a one-of-a-kind gourd piece? At G Home, we love collaborating on custom designs that capture your personal style or commemorate special moments. Whether you’re envisioning a unique shape, a special finish, or a piece tailored to a particular culture’s gourd heritage, we’re here to bring that concept to life.

1. What We Can Customize

• Shape & Size
  • Vases and lamps are the 2 major categories that we provide customization on. You can customize the products by selecting the size and rough shape of the product you are interested.
• Finish & Texture
  • Choose between our cleaned finish for a smooth look or distressed finish for natural, marbled textures. We can also suggest subtle enhancements while maintaining the gourd’s organic appeal.
• Design Details
  • Incorporate personalized motifs, small carvings, or inscriptions that hold special meaning—perfect for gifts, branding, or personal keepsakes.

2. The Process

1. Consultation
   • Contact us via gourdrevival@gmail.com. Share your ideas, reference images, dimensions, and any special requests or inspirations.
2. Design Proposal
   • After discussing your vision, we’ll provide sketches or mood boards, along with estimated costs and timelines for approval. We require a 50% deposit to move forward as customized products requires trips to the gourd farms to find the right gourd for your project.
3. Crafting & Updates
   • Our founder, Haoying, and the G Home team hand-select gourds and shape them according to your design. We’ll send progress updates or photos upon request.
4. Final Touches & Delivery
   • Once your piece is complete, we’ll carefully package and ship it to your doorstep, ready to infuse your space with its unique gourd story.

3. Timelines & Pricing

• Lead Time: Custom orders typically take between 2–4 weeks, depending on the complexity of the design and gourd availability. Larger or highly detailed commissions may require additional time.
• Costs: Pricing varies based on size, complexity, and any specialized finishes or carvings. We’ll provide a transparent quote after our initial consultation.

4. Natural Variations & Special Requests

Because gourds are organic materials, no two pieces are exactly alike. Factors like wall thickness, shape irregularities, and surface coloration can create beautiful, one-of-a-kind nuances. We embrace these natural variations and work closely with you to ensure your final piece aligns with both your aesthetic preferences and the gourd’s innate qualities.
