Well looks good.
That looks like a Jute type cordage.
So this was made for decoration as that cord would not last in any ocean.
Nothing wrong with that as this is what we would see in tiki bars of old.

The hole looks like a good cut made with a glass band saw and not a hole saw I would guess.

Take care when you hang this as Jute over time can get weak and rot or break.
Can take some time depending on how it was cared for and stored.

Show us it again after you get it lit up.

Congrats!
