Origin: Sourced in West Bengal, India, part of the Bengal region where kantha stitching originated.

Giving back

This piece supports the continuation of kantha, a craft rooted in the Bengal region and passed down through generations.

By repurposing pre-loved saris, it continues this tradition of renewal, keeping textiles in circulation and reducing waste.

A portion of proceeds is shared with marginalised communities through our ongoing partnership with human rights organisation Restless Beings.

For every order placed, we also plant a tree, contributing to long-term environmental restoration.

Discover

Kantha is a centuries-old stitching tradition from the Bengal region, spanning present-day West Bengal and Bangladesh.

Originally created within the home, layers of worn cloth were stitched together using small running stitches to form quilts for everyday use. What began as a practical act of reuse became something more, a quiet expression of care, resourcefulness, and creativity.

Today, this practice continues as a way of preserving both craft and a philosophy rooted in renewal, where nothing is wasted and every piece carries a past into the present.
