Here, that everyday kitchen object is repurposed as décor: the same paddle-shaped board, the same neat row of holes, but finished in a rich espresso-brown wood stain and hand-painted with white kolam motifs at each corner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eKolam is the geometric threshold art drawn every dawn on doorsteps across Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka — traditionally in rice flour, traditionally gone by evening, redrawn the next morning without fail. This piece borrows that same dot-and-line grammar and fixes it permanently onto wood, so the pattern doesn't wash away with the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is a dual-purpose piece, built to work two ways. Laid flat on a console or dining table, its holes become a natural fit for a single tea-light or votive candle, with the rest of the board framing it like a runner centrepiece. Mounted vertically, it reads as a striking wall accent — the paddle-shaped silhouette and hand-painted corners doing the work of a full decorative panel, no candle needed. Either way, it's the kind of object that gets asked about: recognisably a kitchen tool to anyone from a Chettinad or South Indian household, and a genuine cultural conversation piece for anyone encountering it for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFor anyone who grew up around a Chettinad kitchen, this piece is instantly familiar — the same spoon rack that hung by the stove, remade as something you'd now hang in a living room or entryway. For NRI households especially, it's a compact, shippable way to bring a very specific, very regional piece of home into a house abroad, without needing the full-sized kitchen fixture it's modeled on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArt Form:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kolam (traditional South Indian threshold art), on a Chettinad-style spoon holder silhouette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid Wood, hand-painted finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 inches (Length) x 6 inches (width) x 1 inch (thickness)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark espresso-brown wood stain with hand-painted white kolam detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dual-purpose — tabletop décor (candle holder) or wall-mounted décor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Just hang on the holes provided\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EthniiChic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46015779340332,"sku":"EC-HD-TT-0215","price":1990.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/0070\/7628\/files\/Chethinaadspoonholderwithkolamdecor_EthniiChic.jpg?v=1787416144","url":"https:\/\/ethniichic.com\/products\/kolam-chettinad-spoon-holder-hand-painted-wooden-decor-table-wall","provider":"EthniiChic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
