檳榔袋的型制約略為梯型或半圓形

  The betel nut bag was slightly trapezium shaped or semi-circular. The front of the bag was, apart from the lid, embroidered with a flower pattern. The bag strap would often have other decorations, like silver coins or shells. The bottom of the strap on one side would be decorated with tassels or with hairballs.

  The net bag is a square shaped bag woven from nylon thread. At the mouth it has a hemp thread, which is used to close the bag. It is also connected to the two sides of the bottom of the bag, forming a back strap for ease of carrying.
