Vintage lohori kantha quilt - autumn stripes

Add colour, texture, and personality to your home with a beautiful vintage kantha quilt. Used as a throw, draped on a chair or on the end of your bed, these unique pieces represent a connection to a centuries old textile tradition, and to the creativity and skill of Bengali women.

Lohori means wave, a style of kantha stitching popular in Rajshahi, Bangladesh, where the straight kantha stitch are closely packed to form regular patterns.

This beautiful lohori kantha features multi-coloured stitching in the soja (straight or simple lines) pattern, partly on white and partly on a striped background, with a fringed edge.

NOTE : These quilts are made from vintage fabrics, patched and stitched by hand. Any variation or inconsistency is not to be construed as a fault, but part of the intrinsic beauty of the history of the piece and the handmade process.
