    Notes:
    Calabash is primarily used for utensils, such as cups, bowls, and basins in rural areas. It can be used for carrying water or can be made for carrying items, such as fish, when fishing. In some Caribbean countries, it is worked, painted, and decorated as shoulder bags or other items by artisans, and sold to tourists.
