Navy & Orange Kantha Throw

A dusky red with a beautifully weathered motif on one side, and bold orange flowers on the other, there are certainly two sides to this kantha’s story! The contrasting saris on each side are brought together with the traditional kantha stitch which stands out in its own right against the darker tones of the reclaimed saris.

Made from 100% cotton, the kantha’s stitch six layers of saris into one piece, for a textured throw which acts like a quilt, or a picnic rug - in fact, whatever you’d like to use it for!

• 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.
