Giant Metal Calabash

The calabash (Hu Lu) has always been the best cure for the Sickness Star 2 Black in Flying Stars Feng Shui. So it was a pleasant surprise to me to notice the giant metal containers outside many Chinese herbal shops are shaped like calabash. I have always seen such containers outside the shops and they are filled with cooling herbal tea for passer-by to purchase and have a quick drink to quench their thirst and also relieve from excessive heat energy in the body. But it always escaped my mind that the containers are actually giant calabash filled with healing beverage. This may have increased the health properties of the tea in them tremendously.
