Indian onjal

An oonjal is a swing that is typically anchored to the ceiling of a room - using iron link chains and the bottom is a wooden plank. This used to be a popular item of furniture in most southern Indian houses.[1] They have been not as popular as houses give way to flats.[2] There is a popular wedding ritual in which the bride and groom sit on an oonjal decorated with flowers[3] and receive blessings.[4] Particularly, it is prominent hanging in the houses of Indian Tamil families.
