Many among us are familiar with the unique shape and make of wooden pillars from Chettinad.

Original Artwork
Cranes, Flamingos

This style of woodwork stands as a tribute to the artistic senses and cultural identity of the Chettiar community who are specially known for their talents in woodworking. 
Hedao’s rendition of the Chettinad Crossing incorporates paintings of flamingos and cranes – they symbolize elegance and beauty. This Hedao piece elongates and gives vertical definitions to enclosed indoor spaces, as well as outdoors. 
The Chettinad Crossing offers a sophistication that is slick, intricate yet simple while fashioned in celebrated age-old forms.

The Chettinad Crossing is also available in a deep magnificent Green with Flamingos adorning the perimeter of the cabinet. Standing tall at about 7ft, this art installation is sure to turn heads.
