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.
