Description

Coconuts are not only an important economic plant for consumption, but also have a hard and beautiful appearance that can be used for handicrafts or decorations. Coconut shells (Prog) are a part that used to be thrown away as worthless.

Now, with the wisdom, creativity and craftsmanship of local people in various areas, they can be used to create beautiful handicrafts with meticulous craftsmanship. Coconut shells have special properties and characteristics that can be modified to be used as tools and utensils since ancient times. Because mature shells are hard and durable, they can be polished smoothly, have a shiny black color, and can be easily cut into various sizes. The coconut shells used must be selected in shapes that are appropriate for the product, for example, if making a spoon, a small coconut shell must be selected. If making a bag, a large shell must be selected and then the coconut shells must be cut into separate parts to obtain the shape and size according to the desired product characteristics using a steel saw or electric saw.

Then, they are assembled into products. If customers want the shells to be shiny and black, they can use coconut oil to rub them, or foreign customers who prefer the natural look of the shells will rub them with fine sandpaper and smooth them with a hair trimmer.
