Antique Pettagama

Rare Antique Solid Jackwood Pettagama (Traditional Sri Lankan Antique Chest)

A truly rare opportunity to own an authentic piece of Sri Lankan heritage.

This beautiful antique Pettagama (traditional storage chest) was acquired from an old Walawwa (ancestral manor house) in Kandy and is handcrafted entirely from solid Jackwood. Every panel is made from a single solid Jackwood plank, showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship of traditional Sri Lankan artisans.

The chest features four large ornamental turned legs and stunning Purna Kalasa (Sacred Pot) and floral carvings. The intricate carvings are beautifully inlaid with Ebony and White Sandalwood, making this an exceptionally valuable and unique collector’s piece.

Antiques of this quality and craftsmanship are becoming increasingly difficult to find. It is an excellent investment for antique collectors and an elegant statement piece for luxury homes, boutique hotels, villas, restaurants, or heritage properties.
