{"product_id":"turkana-milk-fat-vessel","title":"Turkana Milk \/ Fat Vessel","description":"\u003cp\u003eBuilt for carrying and storing rather than ornament, which is exactly why it holds. Among the Turkana of northern Kenya, gourd vessels like this were everyday equipment in a pastoralist life, used for milk and animal fat, hung, filled, emptied and returned to use. The scorched geometric patterning is burnt into the skin of the gourd, a decoration that survives handling because it is part of the surface rather than applied to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tied handle loops and worn body keep it close to that use. A good example because it still feels functional even as a display object.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KILL OR BE KILLED","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43248756949105,"sku":"KOBK.26.OBJ.003","price":195.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/5800\/9201\/files\/download_6673db6a-34de-405c-aa33-cb70b9af6eff.jpg?v=1779781535","url":"https:\/\/kobk.online\/products\/turkana-milk-fat-vessel","provider":"KILL OR BE KILLED","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
