Support net
Coconut plantations were a key component of the colonial economy on the Marshall Islands. Copra, the dried coconut kernel, was an important export item tied to the European demand for coconut oil. Nets like these were used by women to transport coconuts, when, for example, transporting them for wholesale trade. This net is tied with rope derived from coconut coir. The opening has a drawstring by which the net can be closed.
