This coconut shell cup is made from a real coconut shell by skilled Sri Lankan craftsmen. It is polished until it shines, and it has a small handle and a base, so it sits steady on the table. Use it for tea, coffee or any warm drink.
Size of the coconut shell cup
The cup holds about 175 to 250 mL. That is the right amount for a cup of milk tea or a small coffee. Because the shell is light, the cup is easy to hold and carry.
Made from natural coconut shell
Each cup starts as a coconut shell that would otherwise go to waste. Our craftsmen cut it, shape it and polish it by hand. As a result, the cup is smooth to touch. Also, every shell has its own dark brown pattern, so no two cups look the same.
Why drink from a coconut shell cup
People in Sri Lanka have used coconut shell for generations. It keeps a natural, rustic feel at your table. For example, you can serve plain tea, milk tea or coffee to guests in it. It also makes a thoughtful gift for tea lovers, for Avurudu or for a housewarming.
Eco friendly and kind to the planet
This cup is a good choice if you want to use less plastic. It is made from a natural material and lasts for a long time. Moreover, your purchase supports local craftsmen, who earn a fair price for their skill.
How to care for your coconut shell cup
Caring for the cup is easy. First, wash it by hand with mild soap and warm water. Then dry it with a soft cloth. Do not soak it for long, and do not use a dishwasher. Also, rub a little coconut oil on it now and then to keep the shine.
