This unusual story is of a Goan who fell in love with coconut craft. Out of his sheer interest in the field, this man from a traditional goldsmith's family picked-up and perfected the art of carving the coconut, its shell and its wood, into unexpectedly artistic designs. Also in this book: special tips on how to take to this craft, elaborate information on the coconut and its many uses, and an insight into the master craftsman's work and love for his art.
