Dhruvi Vintage Kantha Quilt
'Dhruvi' - a beautifully repurposed sari kantha quilt throw, handcrafted from upcycled cotton sarees. The earthy tones on this kantha throw are brought to life with red, blue and white kantha stitching .
❃ Size: 200cm x 100cm
❃ Material: 100% upcycled vintage cotton saree, hand-sewn together using a traditional kantha stitch. 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.
❃ Love and Care: Our kantha quilts are machine washable (and in fact get softer over more time & use).
❃ Each kantha is one-of-a-kind with it’s own unique variations and each one features the hand-stitched name of the woman who made it. This quilt was handmade by Israt.
❃ The Maker: This quilt has been handmade by the women artisans of ‘Basha’, a fair trade social enterprise in Bangladesh, which helps survivors of sex trafficking and women at risk rebuild their lives. Through the creation of these beautiful and unique items, the artisans are now employed in work that brings dignity, livelihood and a brighter future.
Our vintage kantha quilts are handcrafted from vintage textiles which have lived a full life before becoming a kantha quilt. Thus they may show small imperfections, such as small threads, colour inconsistency or small stains. They may show signs of wear, or have little patches here and there, which only adds to their character and charm. Our vintage kanthas are a handmade product, thus the pattern and stitching can be irregular.
