#kantha throw

This is a beautiful, soft, Handmade one of a kind vintage kantha throw. Each one is unique and has different colours and patterns on either side. The beautiful textures on both sides of the quilt with closure fine kantha work makes it cool, vibrant and appealing. Our kantha throws are so much more than just a throw. Handcrafted by skilled artisans from rural villages in Rajasthan which are located around the India & Pakistan border. This is a very special Hand Crafted Kantha Quilt because it is made up of 10-15 years old saris and with hundreds of running stitches. Kantha is a Uniquely ""Quilted"" texture made from layering colourful Homemade Indian Vintage Kantha Cotton Fabrics together. Our kantha quilts are beautiful works of art, hand-crafted in the best quality by native women working in excellent conditions. These are created with four to six layers of vintage sari cloth, layered and joined with straight rows of even stitching. Bright colours, bold prints, and unique pairings reflect local vibrancy and spirit and ensure no one else has a blanket exactly like yours. Each throw is a one-of-a-kind with it’s own unique variations and each one reflects its own story. Our standard blankets are stitched in approximately 35 hours spanning across 5 days by hand. These are beautiful heirloom pieces which provide freedom and opportunity to the craftsmen who hand crafted your kantha quilt. A little more about our blankets: - The cloth used in our kanthas is re-purposed, which means no new dyes or inks, no by-products of production; the only factory-produced supplies we use are thread. - Our 'special' silk-blend blankets are made from silk-blend cloth discarded by the producers for flaws, colour variation, out-dated patterns, or as remnants. - Thickness : Each layer of sari cloth is very thin (imagine a soft muslin for a baby swaddle), so if there are only 3 or 6 layers, the blanket will be very light. This is the most common thickness, but is much thinner than most Westerners would expect from a blanket. Our kanthas are made with 6 layers of sari cloth. The final product is still thin, not bulky, but definitely as robust as kantha come. They are light, but provide great warmth. - Edge Stitching : This is where a more inexpensively produced, lower quality kantha will reveal itself. A well-made kantha should have a straight edge, with a kantha stitch right up to the edge, preventing any fraying or interior cloth coming out. Our kantha are stitched with precision all around! Our kantha blankets are all made in a generous, safe, positive business by vulnerable and at-risk women who can now work with dignity. We stand by our products and are confident that you won't find a kantha that is as unique, versatile, rich in story, or as well-constructed as our hand-stitched kantha quilts. Size : Assorted twin size (Approx. size given in details) Colour And Design : As image shown (colour tits may vary due to the lighting effect).
