Hand stitched kantha silk vintage throw

Our Kantha quilts are hand-stitched by the women groups based in Kolkatta from recycled vintage silk sari fabric from India
Each piece is made with two silk fabrics stitched together with a Kantha running stitches in 2 different colors, creating a subtle stripe throughout the length of the throw

Kantha refers to the type of stitch used in the craft of embroidery. The Kantha stitch gives the sari quilts their general wavy, textured quality. Each Kantha quilt is handmade, fair trade, unique, and has hand-sewn magic and a story of many layers.
