Green Patchwork Kantha Throw

Stripes, chevrons and patchwork - this lively throw ties multiple patterns together in the hand done Kantha stitch synonymous with South Asia. Muted beige tones work alongside soft fresh greens and a pop of yellow and red on one side, for a versatile throw that will work well wherever you use it!

Using the traditional art of kantha stitching, this throw is made of up six layers of 100% cotton reclaimed saris. Combining the beauty and intricacy of a traditional dress garment with robust stitching method that brings six layers of fabric together creates a hard wearing textured piece that’s a feast for the eyes, and can be used as:

• A chair or sofa throw
• A summer bed cover
• A picnic rug
• Or just a lightweight blanket to cosy up under

Supporting women in Bangladesh

All our kantha throws are sourced from a responsible supplier in Jaipur, who works directly with artisans and adheres to the strictest of Fair Trade standards. The throws are hand stitched by women in Bangladesh who have escaped sex trafficking and now earn a fair wage for their craftsmanship.

Reused saris for greater sustainability
The kantha throws are made up of six layers of reclaimed saris. The fabric, which is too beautiful to be discarded, is given a new lease of life with the embroidery art of kantha. Because the kantha’s use vintage fabric, you can expect some variations in the photos and a mark or two - but these merely tell a story of these unique throws which are carefully stitched and brimming with character.
