This Vintage Throw Kantha Quilt is made of 100% Cotton Fabric. It has three layers of old recycled fabric pieces stitched together with thousands of small & delicate fine running sturdily Kantha stitches, hand crafted softly quilted handmade by artisans in India. The entire quilt is painstakingly hand embroidered with straight running stitches to create a unique piece, one of a kind (no two are exactly alike), making it a Vintage Kantha Quilt. It is tradition in India to recycle used old sari for making quilts/throws. Kantha is still the most popular form of embroidery practiced by rural women in India. The way in which the stitches have been done by hand makes the quilt extraordinary. It has different beautiful warm and charming colors, designs and patterns on either side which gives a distinct look & thus can be used both sides (REVERSIBLE). These quilts are famed and admired due to their Kantha work. Whether you drape it over your bed, couch, or favourite chair, it's sure to make a statement and breathe life into your decor. Bright colors add vibrancy to your living space / bedroom. It can be used in a variety of ways as quilt, blanket, bed cover, bed throw, bedspread, table cover, coverlet, curtains, wall hanging, tapestry, rug for picnics/beaches and carpet. Due to Kantha stitches this item can be washed in a cold, delicate cycle in a washing machine.
