The Art of Kantha

Kantha embroidery is a traditional folk art form originating from Bengal, characterized by its intricate running stitches and the transformation of old fabrics into new, vibrant creations.

The process is a labor of love, resulting in a unique and heirloom-quality piece that carries the soul of its maker.
