The word 'kantha' means 'patched cloth' and Bengali women (of Northwest India and Bangladesh) have made functional items like in this method for centuries. These stunning kantha products are superimposed layers of vintage saris, carefully hand-sewn with neat rows of contrasting thread to form a beautiful finished piece. Each item is made from 100% reclaimed sari cloth, requiring meticulous attention to detail and several hours to stitch by hand (depending on experience).
