The above photo shows a traditional handmade utensil called 'cocho', still common in the cork region of Alentejo (south of Lisbon).
It's carved from cork bark and mainly used by shepherds to drink fresh water from fountains.
Usually, it's 15 cm long (approximately 5.9 inches).

That's amazing and beautiful. I would like to have one, or at least drink from one. Have a lovely weekend yourself, Belita.

ReplyDeleteThe more curious (and often amazing) things come from our traditions.
