THARALA - An adaptable cradle chair
Tharala, drawn from Sanskrit and Telugu, embodies motion as emotion, the sway of a curtain or ripple of still water. More than a chair, it is a cradle of memories and a rhythm of rest. Hand-turned in the spirit of Channapatna craft, its curves carry warmth, tradition, and care. Designed to transform into a low footstool, it adapts across generations, fostering belonging and continuity. Tharala is not just for rocking the body, but for soothing the soul.
