Vintage items from India

Meet our Kantha pieces

Our textile collection from India is imbued with a rich history and craftsmanship that have been passed down through generations. With an abundance of colors, textures, and patterns, these collections reflect the diverse cultural heritages of the country. Each piece tells its own story and embodies the traditional artisanal skills deeply rooted in Indian society.

This collection not only serves as a source of aesthetic admiration and a celebration of India’s rich textile traditions, but also embodies a commitment to sustainability. This collection consists of Kantha items, which are a beautiful example of traditional textile art that repurposes vintage saris into vibrant and soft interior pieces.

Kantha cushions & blankets from India are a beautiful embodiment of traditional textile craftsmanship, transforming vintage saris into charming and colourful cushions & blankets. The art of crafting these Kantha textiles entails layering old saris and meticulously hand-stitching them together using a basic running stitch. This process not only revitalizes the fabric but also yields a distinctive, sustainable product infused with rich character and heritage.

Please note that these pillows and blankets are made from vintage fabrics and therefor, on a quite rare occasion, small imperfections such as little color variations or small stitched up patches can occur. For us, this adds to the story and uniqueness of the item and it’s why we love them even more.

We hand-check every item before putting them up in the shop. All pillows and blankets are professionally cleaned. Kantha items can be washed up to 30 degrees, using a gentle detergent. Pillows will be delivered including the filling.
