Kantha Quilted Throw - One of a kind - Pink & Grey Vintage

  • India

Our hand-stitched Kantha Throws are made by a small womens network in the village of Bansberia, West Bengal. Led by Ms. Rozina Bibi, this group of 15 women work from home and in small community spaces, creating these circular textiles that are distinctive to the region.

The throws are made using layers of pre-loved saris and fabric remnants that are carefully cleaned, arranged, and stitched together using the traditional Kantha technique. No two pieces are ever the same. 

Please see the product details section for measurements.

Note: This piece has considerable signs of aging and is priced as such.

Tomorrows x The Shop

The Shop has been a family-run business since 1969, rooted in the awakening of traditional Indian craft and a deep reverence for the handmade. Guided by indigenous textiles and a contemporary sensibility, they create products that are bright, considered, and full of story.

Their approach to upcycling is woven into everything they do — transforming fabric waste and remnant prints into new life, finding beauty in what might otherwise be lost, and treading gently on the earth in the process.

Tomorrows and The Shop share a belief that good design and conscious making are inseparable — this ongoing collaboration brings together two studios united by craft, circularity, and a quiet commitment to doing things differently.

About the process

About the process

Kantha is an ancient embroidery tradition originating in rural Bengal (present-day Bangladesh and West Bengal, India). A running stitch, deceptively simple, worked in parallel lines across layered cloth to bind and quilt. It is a way of giving new purpose to worn saris, stitching them into something whole again.

The stitch itself creates a gentle ripple across the surface, both structural and expressive. Each throw carries this lineage — slow, meditative work that transforms discarded fabric into something that will last for decades.
