About this Art Form
Coconut shell art is a sustainable craft that transforms discarded coconut shells into decorative and functional items — bowls, lamps, wall art and jewellery. Artisans in Kerala carefully cut, shape, polish and sometimes carve intricate designs into the shell. The natural grain and dark colour of coconut shell give each piece a unique, organic elegance. This eco-friendly craft embodies the zero-waste philosophy central to Kerala's relationship with the coconut palm.
