Jewelry that was simple and monochrome with small shells, like this one, was for common people. This headband is made from coconut frond midrib, velvet shell, and boiled coconut leaf from the new shoot. First, the pandanus leaf is wrapped around the midrib. Then the velvet shells are attached to the midrib by tying them using the coconut leaf.
