The Peacock Aranmula Kannadi
CUL0132
The Peacock Aranmula Kannadi is a GI-tagged Kerala heritage mirror set within an ornate peacock-shaped metal frame — one of the most celebrated forms of this ancient craft from Aranmula village. The mirror is handcrafted from a secret copper-tin alloy, polished by hand to a front-reflecting finish that eliminates the ghost image of conventional glass mirrors.
The peacock holds deep significance in Indian culture — associated with Goddess Saraswati (knowledge and arts) and Lord Kartikeya (courage and victory), it symbolizes beauty, grace, and divine protection. Each feather of the frame is individually worked by master craftsmen, making this as much a sculpture as a mirror. The golden and silver tones of the alloy harmonize with the intricate frame to create a piece of quiet, enduring luxury.
Aranmula Kannadi is front-reflecting: the reflective surface sits on the face of the metal, not behind it. This produces a cleaner, spiritually purer reflection and is the defining characteristic of this GI-certified craft. No two pieces are identical — each is cast, filed, and polished entirely by hand over several weeks.
