The KasthaStambh is a finely crafted wooden side table born from the soul of Kerala’s traditional homes. Its solid structure, hand-turned pillars, and functional drawer make it not just a utility piece, but a keeper of stories beside your cot, in a reading corner, or at the heart of your heritage-inspired interior. Just as elders once sat beside the hearth with wisdom and silence, this table stands close — ready to hold what matters. A blend of simplicity and craftsmanship, rooted in nostalgia yet built for today.
Each component reflects a story of devotion, culture, and skilled hands
The table's top offers a platform to rest items of ritual and routine — from oil lamps (Nilavilakku) to books and idols. Its placement near the bedside reflects its ancestral role as a surface of purpose — akin to altars and sacred “pattayappura” slabs.
Modeled after the “Ara” storage cabinets in Tharavad homes, this drawer represents a compact space for safekeeping — ideal for documents, rosaries, or heirlooms. The metallic knob blends rustic feel with utility.
Traditional Role: These ornately spun legs evoke the Deepa Sthambhams of Kerala temples — tall lamp pillars often placed in sacred courtyards. Here, they carry both the weight of the structure and its symbolic connection to light and balance.
The wide lower slab functions as a storage bay for baskets, books, or folded cloths — a nod to traditional wooden chests (like Kanjira Petti) used in Kerala homes for multi-use storage.
Decorative yet purposeful, these crowning knobs mimic the kumbha (kalasha) found atop temple gopurams. They complete the silhouette and offer a symbol of auspicious closure.
From sleek, modern designs that exude contemporary elegance to timeless classics that evoke warmth and nostalgia, our curated selection has something for every taste and lifestyle. Each piece is crafted with precision and care, ensuring both quality and durability.
