🥥 Talismans “Grandfather coconut” (มะพร้าวปู่) – Ancestral protection of Isan
These rare talismans, nicknamed "Grandfather Coconut" (มะพร้าวปู่), come from the shamanic tradition of Isan, a region in northeastern Thailand. Made from coconut shells (actually "Look Tan" to be precise) carved and adorned with natural fibers, they embody the protective spirit of an ancestor watching over the house and its inhabitants.
Crafted by a respected Ajarn elder from Sri Saket province, these powerful objects are designed to ward off evil spirits, illness, and misfortune. Suspended in a home or above an entrance, they form an invisible barrier against negative influences and ensure prosperity in the home.
