Our aprons are kantha-stitched and sewn from repurposed cotton sari quilts, each one carrying layers of history through its fabric.
Cut in a relaxed pinafore style, the shape is generous and easy to wear, with a square neckline and crossover straps at the back. Large patch pockets add practicality, while a cotton lining gives the apron structure and durability for everyday use.
Nothing is wasted in the making. Matching oven mitts are created using off-cuts from our kantha robes and aprons, ensuring each piece of fabric is used with care and intention.
Due to the vintage nature of these textiles, subtle wear and small imperfections are part of their story, making every apron entirely unique.

Giving back
This piece keeps textiles in circulation, giving vintage kantha and fabric off-cuts a third life rather than letting them go to waste.
