Supporting documentatino for a calabash as a charge, to fulfill the criteria set forth in SENA A2B2b:

The calabash, better known now as the bottle gourd, was a well-known gourd used throughout period for a variety of uses in Europe and beyond.

Images of these gourds, including the variation used (which is seen best in image D) are found in the Tacinum Sanitatis manuscripts, a Latin translation of an 11th Century Arabic manuscript created in 14th Century Italy. The source for this information as well as the illustrations below can be found in Annals of Botany, Volume 103, Issue 8, June 2009, pages 1187-1205: https://doi.org/10.1093/aob/mcp055.

Kingdom commenters questioned whether this depiction of a bottle-gourd is similar enough to the documentation provided to be an acceptable defining instance of this charge. This is not the defining instance of this charge: https://oscar.sca.org/index.php?... and Kingdom feels that this depiction is similar enough to forward.
