Les accessoires pour noix d'arec/de bétel, tels que les casse-noix et les couteaux, sont quelques-uns des accessoires et des articles fonctionnels qui se sont développés autour de la culture du paan-supari en Inde. Cette tradition, qui remonte à au moins 2 000 ans, se perpétue encore aujourd'hui dans l'inde et dans toute l'asie du sud-est. Cet instrument est utilisé pour couper les noix d’aréquier en petits morceaux afin d’incorporer ceux-ci dans la chique de bétel. 

Ces ciseaux représentant des formes zoomorphes stylisés.

état de conservation : Très bon état général.
