The story of a Goan (from the west coast of India) who fell in lovel with coconut craft. Out of his interest, Lotlikar who hails from a traditional goldsmith's family, picked up and perfected the art of carving the coconut, its shell and wood, into unexpectedly artistic designs. The book also contains tips on how to take to this craft, information on the cocnut and its many uses, and an insight into the master craftsman's work and his love for the art.
