The Pravāla Mandira Bench invites you to experience seating as an act of heritage. Inspired by the coral glow of Pravāla and the sanctity of the Mandira, this bench transforms any space into a miniature temple of artistry. The scalloped backrest, stained-glass inlays of green and rose, and delicately carved arms recall the grandeur of old courtyard mansions and temple corridors. Its structure suggests both openness and intimacy — a place where one may sit in stillness, welcome a guest, or rest in quiet reflection. More than furniture, it is a sacred form, a living sculpture that carries the whisper of Indian craftsmanship across generations.
Each component reflects a story of devotion, culture, and skilled hands
The scalloped crown is like the Chūḍa (crest of a temple), rising with rhythmic arcs that evoke sacred roofs and temple domes. It protects the sitter as a canopy of grace, symbolizing shelter, pride, and sacred grandeur.
The round central carving resembles a radiant sun-flower. It is a Sūrya Maṇḍala, representing life-force, warmth, and auspicious beginnings, blessing the seat with vitality and divine light.
The stained-glass inlays glow like gems set into a shrine. Green signifies renewal and harmony; the rose floral motifs whisper beauty and devotion. Together, they act as Maṇi Jāla — jeweled windows through which light enters the soul.
The arms extend like wings of welcome, gently curved to embrace. Called Kāruṇya Pakhṣa (Wings of Compassion), they symbolize openness, hospitality, and the warmth of shared comfort.
The slatted wooden base forms the Āsana, a throne of rest. Its structure balances strength with ventilation, symbolizing simplicity united with endurance — a foundation for both body and spirit.
The turned legs are Mūla Sthambha, rooted pillars that support the entire form. Their firm grounding symbolizes stability, resilience, and timeless endurance, like the pillars of a temple that outlast centuries.
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.
