Kantha Stitch Dupatta
Code : P2998

Kantha is a centuries-old quilted embroidery that originated in Bangladesh (earlier known as East Bengal), and involves using old or discarded clothing items like sarees or dhotis. This helps repurpose worn-out clothes, and ensures that each kantha embroidered fabric has a rich history. It has been a consistent source of income for the rural community of women living in West Bengal for several decades and is mainly practised in the district of Murshidabad.
