Our Story

Heritage crafts, carried across the seas

Thekkini was born from a simple longing felt by every Malayali household in the UK — the fragrance of fresh mullappoo on Onam morning, the rustle of a pookalam being laid, the warmth of home traditions that distance makes harder to keep.

We work with skilled artisans to bring that same spirit to your doorstep — beginning with our handcrafted artificial mullappoo, made to last season after season, so the soul of Kerala never has to wait for a flight home.

A Kerala Tradition

Laid Ring by Ring, Just Like Home

Every Onam morning, families across Kerala lay a pookalam at their doorstep — rings of petals added one by one, from the centre outward, welcoming King Mahabali home. It's one of the traditions our UK diaspora customers tell us they miss most.

Our mullappoo strings bring that same soft white detailing to the heart of your own flower carpet — or your hair, doorway, or pooja room — wherever in the UK you're celebrating.
