Shell Handicraft – Artisanat à base de coque

©R. Bourdeix, 2021, section CCSH.

For illustrating this section, we can produce on request at least five large size HD poster (up to 180x100 cm in size). These posters should be adapted to each country, on a case-by-case basis, in order to prominently feature locally produced coconut products, and to promote the marketing of these local products. It is also possible to buy or rent items from the personal collection of Dr R. Bourdeix.

Coconut shell handicrafts are one of the most popular environmentally friendly goods on the market, and they have a long history.
