Handcrafted Wooden Diwan, Charpai & Khatli Chowki Stools (Bajot): Styling Indian Heritage Wood Furniture

Wooden Diwan – Handcrafted Wooden Diwan, Charpai & Khatli Chowki Stools (Bajot): Styling Indian | IRA Furniture
Quick Expert Takeaway

Traditional Indian solid wood diwans (daybeds) and Kutch wooden khatli / chowki stools (bajots) solve modern urban space constraints with timeless regional craft: a 72-inch wooden & cane diwan serves as both a 3-seater living-room couch and an instant guest bed when topped with a 4-inch cotton gadda, while hand-painted wooden khatli stools (₹3,482 – ₹8,652) add vibrant low seating for balconies, pooja corners, and festive baithaks.

1. The Modern Comeback of the 3-Seater Wooden & Cane Diwan

In 2BHK and 3BHK homes where a dedicated guest bedroom isn't practical, a solid wood and woven cane diwan daybed replaces bulky sofa-cum-beds that rely on heavy metal mechanisms. Styled with bolster pillows and a hand-tufted cotton gadda, it anchors living rooms, study rooms, and wide verandas with effortless warmth.
