Created in collaboration with artisans in the village of Sima Nagar, West Bengal, this chaadar is made using three layers of handloomed cotton, stitched together using the traditional kantha technique.

The surface features a freehand, vine-like pattern that moves gently across the fabric, bringing texture and rhythm through the stitching itself. Each piece is stitched without templates, allowing the pattern to form naturally, giving it an organic, slightly imperfect quality that reflects the way this craft has always been practiced.

Traditionally used as a covering, a chaadar can be laid over a bed, used as a top sheet in warmer months, or styled across a sofa or table. Its lightness makes it a versatile piece that moves easily through the home.

Kantha

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.
