Handcrafted Vintage Kantha Quilt – Subtle Red Ombre & Graphic Motifs
Handcrafted Vintage Kantha Quilt – Subtle Red Ombre & Graphic Motifs
There is a popular design movement that suggests red acts as a secret neutral — that a touch of red belongs in every interior. Subtle Red Ombre & Graphic Motifs makes it very easy to understand why.
Size: 208x145cm (approx)
One side features a stunning red ombré effect, delicately interspersed with heritage motifs that balance vibrancy with quiet beauty. It is a true foundational layer for a soulful, considered home.
Turn it over and you find our preferred side — the reason we hand-selected this Kantha. A ditsy floral design on a beguiling green background that is simply wonderful to live with. Charming, fresh and completely one of a kind.
Hand stitched from layers of vintage cotton saris, every Kantha is one of a kind.
Drape it across a bed, fold it over a sofa or layer it across a favourite armchair. A piece full of warmth, character and understated beauty.
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.
