In India, the coconut is celebrated as a symbol of prosperity and health.

Coconuts, in different forms, are believed to be anti-viral, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial and anti-parasitic. During World War 2, coconut water is said to have been used to treat dehydration due to the shortage of medical supplies.

Coconuts are also useful to fashion handicrafts, and is an essential ingredient for cooking in the South. Found abundantly along the long coastline, coconut leaves and lumber are also used to make homes.

Color : reddish brown terracotta bricks

Apply a mild glue to stick the bricks together. To reuse the bricks, gently prise apart and peel off the dried glue. 

Kattoos can leave a fine clay residue as you create. This is a natural quality of the eco-friendly product and not a defect. 

The brick size may vary slightly as these are hand-crafted bricks.
