Know before you buy
Because these are vintage, upcycled pieces, you should expect slight variations in the fabric's texture and color. These imperfections are part of the textile's history and do not affect the structural integrity of the quilt.
We recommend hand washing in cold water with a gentle detergent to preserve the delicate hand-stitching. Lay it flat to air dry away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
No. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind vintage item, meaning the specific pattern, stitching density, and exact shade of blue and yellow will vary from piece to piece.
Kantha quilts are typically lightweight, consisting of layers of cotton fabric stitched together without a thick batting. They are ideal as a decorative throw or a light summer layer, but may need to be paired with a duvet for colder months.
Kantha is a traditional Indian embroidery technique that uses a simple running stitch to join layers of fabric. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the dense stitching provides the quilt with its signature crinkled texture and durability.
