This handcrafted three-headed Pooram elephant stool with Nettipattam is a premium Kerala rosewood sculpture that combines the auspicious power of the three-headed elephant with the ceremonial grandeur of the Nettipattam — the ornamental golden headgear worn by temple elephants during the Thrissur Pooram festival.
The Nettipattam: Kerala's Most Iconic Ceremonial Ornament
The Nettipattam is the elaborate golden caparison worn on the forehead of temple elephants during Kerala's grand festivals, most famously the Thrissur Pooram. Crafted from gold-plated copper with intricate filigree work, it is one of the most recognisable symbols of Kerala's temple culture and festive heritage. This stool captures that ceremonial grandeur in hand-carved rosewood — each Nettipattam detail carved with precision by skilled Kerala artisans.
Why This Piece Stands Apart
- Nettipattam detail — the carved ceremonial headgear elevates this beyond a standard elephant stool; a rare and distinctive feature
- Three-headed elephant — an auspicious motif symbolising wisdom, strength, and divine abundance in Indian tradition
- Premium rosewood — rich warm-brown tones with natural grain variation; each piece unique
- Entirely handcrafted — carved and polished by Kerala artisans using traditional woodcraft techniques
- Functional stool — the three elephant bodies form a sturdy base usable as a low stool or side table
- Compact and substantial — 6 x 6 inches; ideal for tabletop, shelf, or floor display
- Meaningful gifting — ideal for housewarmings, corporate gifting, Onam, Diwali, or Pooram season
- Ships within 48 hours — delivered in 7–9 working days, carefully packed
