This handcrafted Kerala Idangazhi is the medium vessel in Kerala's traditional three-piece measuring system — made in warm sand-brown wood with intricate golden brass embellishments by skilled Kerala artisans. A meaningful piece of living heritage for your home, Onam display, or gifting.
The Idangazhi in Kerala's Heritage
In Kerala's traditional measurement system, the Idangazhi sits between the Naazhi (smallest) and the Para (largest). The relationship was precise: 4 Naazhi = 1 Idangazhi, 4 Idangazhi = 1 Para. These vessels were used in every Kerala household to measure rice and grains — symbols of fair trade, agricultural abundance, and domestic prosperity passed down through generations.
Why This Piece Stands Apart
- Authentic Idangazhi form — faithfully replicates the traditional shape and proportions of the medium Kerala measuring vessel
- Wood and brass construction — warm sand-brown wood body with intricate golden brass embellishments
- Entirely handcrafted — traditional Kerala artisan craftsmanship; no two pieces are identical
- Versatile — use as a decorative showpiece, functional container, or pooja room accent
- Meaningful gifting — ideal for housewarmings, weddings, Onam, or corporate gifting
- Ships within 48 hours — delivered in 7–9 working days, carefully packed
