IK1012: Hand-Crafted Vintage Kantha Quilt – Subtle Red Ombre & Graphic Motifs
One side of this beautiful and intricate vintage Kantha features a stunning red ombre effect, delicately interspersed with heritage motifs that make it both vibrant and beautifully understated. There is a popular design movement right now that suggests red acts as a secret neutral, and that a hint of red should be added to every single interior. While we don’t like to blindly follow rigid design rules or fleeting trends, this exquisite piece makes it incredibly easy to see why that theory works so well. It is a true foundational layer for a soulful home.
On the other side (our preferred side if we are honest and why we hand selected this kantha) is a ditsy floral design on a beguiling green background, we simply love it.
Our vintage kantha quilts are not only incredibly stylish but practical too; as they are all machine washable, on a cool separate cycle.
Colours: Red, green orange, lime, yellow, pink
Size: 208x145cm (approx)
Wrap Yourself in History
Wrap Yourself in History
Discover the rich heritage of our curated vintage Kantha quilts. Originating in South Asia, the word kantha refers to the simple, rhythmic running stitch used to layer and quilt beautiful vintage sari fabric together.
Hand-stitched by skilled female artisans in India using these time-honoured techniques, each piece breathes new life into reclaimed saris. Because every quilt is hand-crafted from upcycled, pre-loved textiles, no two pieces are ever the same.
Each offers stunning colour contrasts, rich patterns on one side, and a more mellow aesthetic on the reverse—bringing history, sustainability, and soulful artistry into the modern home.
How I Style Them (A Note from Stanley & May)
How I Style Them (A Note from Stanley & May)
I absolutely love these quilts and use them all over my own home! Try layering them over the arm of a sofa for an instant pop of colour, or drape them over a crisp white bedspread to bring unique charm and individuality to a bedroom.
They also make fabulous, instant curtains without the need for any sewing. Simply hang them with curtain clips over a drafty doorway. In the summer months, they look stunning utilized as vibrant tablecloths or packed up to use as an eclectic picnic blanket.
Condition & Care
Condition & Care
Care Instructions: Incredibly practical as well as stylish; all of our Kantha quilts are machine washable on a cool, separate, gentle cycle. Line dry out of direct sunlight.
Vintage Disclaimer: Due to the age of the repurposed sari fabrics, you may find them to be perfectly imperfect with slight fading, minor patches, or gentle wear. These are not flaws, but rather the cherished history, character, and soul of an authentic, pre-loved textile.
