This handcrafted rosewood Pooram elephant head wall piece captures the most iconic image in Kerala's festival culture — the caparisoned temple elephant, adorned with the Nettipattam and ceremonial regalia, at the height of the Pooram procession. Carved by skilled Kerala artisans from quality rosewood, it brings the regal presence of Kerala's grandest festival into your home as a permanent, commanding wall accent.
The piece renders the elephant's decorated head in rich detail — the ornate forehead, expressive eyes, and ceremonial adornments carved with the precision that Kerala woodcraft is renowned for. The warm, deep tones of rosewood deepen with age, making this a piece that only grows more beautiful over time.
The Pooram Elephant: Kerala's Most Iconic Image
The decorated Pooram elephant is the defining image of Kerala's temple festival tradition. During the grand Pooram festivals — most famously the Thrissur Pooram — these magnificent animals are adorned with the Nettipattam (the ornamental golden headgear), Venchamaram (white fly whisks), and Aalavattom (circular peacock feather fans), transforming them into living symbols of divine grandeur. This wall piece distils that extraordinary image into a single, enduring work of art.
Why This Piece Stands Apart
- Premium rosewood — rich, warm tones with natural grain variations; no two pieces are identical
- Intricate carving — the ornate forehead, expressive eyes, and ceremonial adornments rendered with artisan precision
- Wall-mount format — ready to hang; a commanding statement piece for any wall
- Meaningful gifting — ideal for housewarmings, corporate gifting, Onam, and Kerala heritage enthusiasts
- Ships within 48 hours — delivered in 7–9 working days, carefully packed

The cute Onam hamper beautifully captured the essence of Onam with traditional goodies and cultural touches that made it truly special.

Highly recommend for anyone looking to gift something meaningful and culturally rich!

I purchased the product when it is shown 10% discount for first purchase but during billing it was missing. When contacted the staff they promptly responded by refunding the amount which I never expected. I have become your ambassador and recommending for my friends. Please keep it up for your growth.
The product is very very attractive and packing also so smooth, got delivered without any damage, overall total worth for that price. Thank you Culturati
