About Kantha

Kantha is an indigenous household craft of the rural women of West Bengal. The craft form originated as embroidered quilts not less than a thousand years ago, often to keep babies warm. This has with time developed into a full-fleged art form, making way for the embroidery styles. Nothing embodies women’s creativity better than the legendary Nakshi Kantha, a Geographical Indication (GI) product of West Bengal. Biswa Bangla presents the exquisite Kantha stitch of West Bengal on silk and cotton in a wide range of textiles and home furnishing products.
