Kaattaadi is a pinwheel made from coconut leaves, fixed to a stick so it spins with the wind or the motion of a run. Once a familiar sight in the hands of children, it’s a simple craft that turns everyday materials into play. This rug reimagines the pinwheel’s intersecting blades in a pattern of stripes and solids, arranged around a clear centre. Jacquard woven in Ola Green and beige sisal, Kaattaadi carries forward a piece of Kerala’s playful craft tradition into a textured, modern form.

Sisal fiber is derived from the leaf of Agave plant, which grows in Brazil and East Africa. It is valued for cordage because of its strength, durability and affinity for certain dyestuffs. The lustrous strands, usually creamy white,average from 80 to 120 cm in length and 0.2 to 0.4 mm in diameter. The higher-grade fiber is converted into yarns for the carpet industry.
The Jacquard machine is a device fitted to a loom. The resulting ensemble of the loom and Jacquard machine is then called a Jacquard loom. Jacquard looms are basically used to create larger figured designs, which cannot be produced on a dobby loom and where the warp threads are controlled individually through a patterning mechanism linked to a computer aided design (CAD) system.

Inspired by childhoods spent in Kerala, the Ola Kalippattam collection looks back at the simple joy of toys made from coconut leaves. These designs celebrate the joy of play and the delicate artistry of everyday life, where memories were made with nothing more than nature and nimble hands. Stripes and textures take shape from the natural form of the leaf itself, echoing its folds and rhythm.
