Every country has something unique to offer when you visit it for a vacation, and bringing back such unique items helps you preserve the memories of time spent there. Georgia is no different as it boasts of several one-of-a-kind things that might not be available in your country. 

Georgia is a beautiful country located at the intersection of Europe and Asia. It is home to two of the most incredible tourist destinations in Europe- Caucasus Mountain villages and the Black Sea villages. It is also famous for a cave monastery called Vardzia, which dates back to the 12th century. Furthermore, Georgia’s capital is Tbilisi, which you will truly enjoy as you walk through the cobblestone streets. 

The scenic places in Georgia also have some items to offer that you can take back home. Let’s find out what these are. 

1. Georgian Blue Tablecloths

The Georgian blue tablecloths are a specialty of the country as you will find them in many restaurants, hotels, and the homes of the local people. The cloth is often adorned with designs including birds, plants, deers, etc. These blue tablecloths are also known as “supra” in the local language, meaning ‘the best Georgian feast.’ 

To suit the modern needs and customized demands of customers, you will find various modified versions of the original Georgian blue tablecloth. You can choose the color of the fabrics while maintaining the same designs found on the blue ones. Use the tablecloths back at home as a way of holding on to the lovely times spent in Georgia.

2.The Georgian Wine Horn

Georgia is known as the ‘cradle of wine’ as the South Caucasians were the first people to have created wine. In the earlier days, the locals used to drink wine in horns (something that has been portrayed in various European films and tv shows). Made of ram’s horn, the wine horn is also known as Khantsi and is usually decorated with an attractive cord and cuffing. 

For the user’s benefit, a wooden stand is attached to the frame to place it on the table. Georgians would hang this horn in their sword belts and set out for the day. Today, it makes for a great souvenir to bring back home for yourself or your wine-loving friends.

3.Georgian Wine

As already mentioned, Georgia is known for its wine, and you can always carry some of it back home to give to your family, friends, and colleagues. Making this wine starts by putting the wine in an earth-shaped container known as ‘qvevri’ and then leaving it underground for 5 months to mature. 

What makes Georgian wine a must-try and a must-have on your shopping list is that it has made it to the official list of humanity’s intangible heritage under UNESCO.
