The Vana Jyoti Petti Gateway, locally called മന്ദാര പെട്ടി (Mandara Petti), is a beautifully carved storage chest inspired by the nature-filled corridors and latticed sanctuaries of old Kerala homes. Handcrafted in seasoned teak, this gateway chest invites you to safeguard not just valua-bles but family stories and memories. Its ornamental door side, featuring intricate, openwork carv-ing, references the filtered screens of temple sanctums, letting in gentle light and air. Above, the smooth Amara Patina Surface (അമര പാടവം) shimmers with a rich gloss, evoking the dignity of a well-loved heirloom. With every opening and touch, this petti gateway becomes a point of passage—where daily function meets the inward reverence of tradition.
Each component reflects a story of devotion, culture, and skilled hands
The Vana Jaalakam Pattika Door Gateway (“Forest Lattice Panel Door Gateway”) is a master-piece of hand-carved detail. Inspired by the perforated window screens and jaal work of Kerala’s temples and aristocratic homes, its blooming floral grids symbolize harmony and breathe open-ness into the chest—inviting in filtered light, spirit, and legacy.
The Amara Paatavam Peedham Top Surface (“Immortal Patina Platform Surface”) is a broad, pol-ished stage that gleams with the richness of months of hand-fashioned oiling. This surface radi-ates touchable warmth and depth, echoing the ancient benchtops of Kerala mansions that bore lamps, icons, and the daily treasures of a household. Its tactile smoothness invites every hand to linger, grounding the chest in history’s enduring embrace.
