Kantha stitching is a centuries-old textile tradition from Eastern India, celebrated for its beauty and sustainability. With roots stretching back 500 years, this technique was originally a way for Bengalis to breathe new life into old saris, dhotis, and household textiles. By layering and hand-stitching these fabrics together, they created functional items like quilts to provide warmth and durability. Even the thread was carefully repurposed from worn-out materials, making Kantha a true art of up-cycling.

Today, Kantha stitching is woven into modern designs, including timeless and versatile Kantha coats and jackets. These pieces honor the tradition’s rich heritage while embracing contemporary fashion. Each item tells a story of resourcefulness, craftsmanship, and artistry.
