Chapter V., a mat-glaze of gray green will complete the bowl. The three
raffia ropes by which the bowl is suspended are made as follows:
Thirty strands of natural-coloured raffia are doubled around one of the handles, and the ends are braided in a three-stranded plait for twelve inches, where they are tied. Two other braids are made on the other handles in the same way, and when they are twelve inches long the strands from all three braids are united in a thick loop.
