Produit : Cotton cushion cover 45 x 45 cm, made from repurposed textiles.

The craft: exquisite, one of a kind textiles crafted from repurposed saris.  Kantha is one of the oldest forms of embroidery from India. It’s name is derived from Kontha in Sanskrit, meaning pieces of cloth, and the craft has evolved over centuries, from the tradition of stitching patchwork cloth from rags by rural women across the eastern Indian states of West Bengal and Orissa, and Bangladesh. 

The creators of these beautiful textiles skilfully decorate recycled saris with a running stitch, a technique known as Kantha; transforming each piece of used fabric into a piece of art, and a piece of craft heritage. This work also gives rural women financial independence in areas where it is difficult for them to find paid work. 

In detail : 

45 x 45 cm 

100% recycled cotton, from pre loved saris quilted together with a running stitch in cotton. Hand made. Zip. 

Please be aware that the cloth used is vintage, and often has imperfections. This craft is used in order to repurpose textiles. The women who make these products layer 3 pieces of cloth to reinforce the material, sometimes where one layer is faded or thinned, you will see the layer below, or they will patch and mend the cloth. At Storie, we love this creative resourcefulness. If you like the idea, but you aren't sure it's your thing, do drop us a line, we can show you the product in closer detail in photos or a video call. 

Hand wash or gentle machine wash at 30°, no machine drying. 

Similar cushions are available in sizes 40 x 60cm  &  35 x 40 cm

Cushion inner not included
