Kantha Quilts & Blankets

What Is a Kantha Quilt?

“Kantha” is both a simple needlework stitch and a colorful coverlet from India and Bangladesh. For generations, recycled saris and fabrics have been hand-stitched by Indian women. 

By ordering one of our vintage Kantha quilts, you’re supporting female artisans across rural India who keep this remarkable tradition alive. Since Liv Rocks imports these products directly from India, your purchase supports the artists. 

Each Kantha quilt is 100% original; no two are alike. These reversible blankets are *truly vintage* products, so there may be subtle imperfections (like patches and minor discoloration). We believe that these “mistakes” give Kantha quilting its character. Regardless, we carefully wash and check each vintage blanket before shipping them. 

Note: For color preferences, please leave us a note in the checkout box and we will do our best to meet your request. Each Kantha quilt is double-sided, so one side may contain a differently colored pattern.  

What Makes Kantha Quilts Special?

With their distinctly textured quality, these durable vintage fabrics traditionally provide a seat for guests, a gesture of welcome, or simply offer warmth and comfort to homes. They're wonderful to snuggle under, to throw over a couch for a pop of color, or even as a tablecloth. However you use them, we believe that these ethically sourced items are one of the most beautiful ways to breathe new life into home decor. 

We’re always adding new Kantha throw blankets to our inventory, so be sure to check back!
