This wallet is a modification of pineapple fiber noken and jeans. This modification aims to make the selling price affordable. This wallet was made by Arfak women and took about 3 days. Pineapple fiber itself has been used as raw material for making noken since ancestral times. Making noken from pineapple fiber takes around 3 days. First of all, take the pineapple leaves and shave them to remove the fiber. After that, wash the fiber with water and dry it for 2 days. Once dry, the pineapple fiber is then manually spun using hands and feet to form thread. After becoming thread, the fibers are woven and produce noken.
