Kantha Sari

Description

There are few sarees that will allow you to make a style statement through the ‘less is more’ approach. This Bishnupur Silk kantha saree is one of them. With a combination of geometric and classic ‘fishbone’ design, the Kantha saree is minimalistic and yet packed with elegance and style!

A beautiful fabric, often created by masterfully weaving together different fabrics to create a distinct look characterized by its colourful, wrinkled and wavy avatar. A piece of art in many ways, Kantha tells a story of creativity, imagination and care. Kantha, or the running stitch, is an indigenous household craft that was pioneered by the women in rural West Bengal. The Kantha weave is meant to tell a story, in that one is unlikely to find two similar pieces of original Kantha.

In many ways, the heritage-laden Kantha has been adapted to suit the modern day and appeal to a larger audience, spread across the country. From shawls to pillowcases to hats to bed sheets, Kantha has cleverly evolved, making it a classic and yet effective way to make a genuine style statement. We’ve brought Kantha to your home, where you can browse through our unique collection of Kantha sarees and dupattas online, in the comfort of your own private space, and choose which piece of art to make your own!
