what makes
Kantha, a centuries-old art form, is more than just a craft—it's a tradition steeped in history and creativity. Originating in Bengal, India, the kantha technique involves layering worn-out saris and fabrics, meticulously hand-stitching them together with a simple running stitch. The result is a uniquely textured kantha blanket, known for its vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and sustainability. Each kantha quilt tells a story, woven from memories of the past and transformed into a new creation full of charm.
