Made from a genuine vintage kantha quilt, this jacket carries decades of history in every stitch. Kantha is a traditional Bengali craft in which layers of worn cotton saris are hand-quilted together with thousands of tiny running stitches — meaning this piece was stitched entirely by hand long before it became a jacket, and no two will ever be alike.
This particular jacket is a study in beautiful contrasts: one side washed in faded turquoise flecked with rust, the other in soft sage and sun-bleached apricot, with warm terracotta stripes running down the sleeves and collar. Original patches and visible mending are left intact — honest marks of the quilt's former life that give the piece its soul.
Cut in a relaxed, boxy silhouette with a classic collar and a two-way silver zip, it layers effortlessly over everything from a simple black vest to full tonal texture. The densely quilted cotton is soft with age yet substantial, offering lightweight warmth that only gets better with wear.
Female model is 5'7" and is wearing a size Small
