Kantha
Hand-stitched by women in West Bengal, our Kantha textiles are made from repurposed vintage saris. This craft honors fabric as sacred, blending tradition with thoughtful sustainability for the modern world. Kantha has been around for hundreds of years as a form of recycling cloth that is considered sacred. Fabrics are never thrown away or wasted. This idea seems remote in current times, but these sentiments continue to be in practice in India.
Kantha throws are versatile and can be used in many functional and decorative ways. Use them as bed accents, on a couch or chair, as table covers, wall hangings, or picnic spreads
