Betel Nut Scissors - Shevelin Udila Museum of Ethnology
Betel nut scissors, also known as kacip, are one of the collections of the renowned Polish zoologist Professor Mihaw Szczyrzky. He lived in Java from 1907 to 1908, located in the famous Buetenzor Botanical Garden (now known as Bogor). He was interested in Javanese culture and brought many ethnographic exhibits back to his homeland Poland. This is a tool specifically designed for cutting nuts from betel nut and palm trees. Now housed in the Shevelin Udila Museum of Ethnology in Krakow, Poland, it serves as a witness to cultural exchange and fascination with the Javanese way of life in the early 20th century.
