Vintage Kantha Blanket | Leaf & Vine X Design | West Bengal India informative and third yard cuts areA breathtaking example of traditional Bengali needlework, this vintage Kantha throw is hand stitched entirely by artisan textile makers in West Bengal, India. Unlike densely packed Kantha compositions, this piece uses open negative space masterfully allowing a dramatic diagonal X shaped vine of individual multicolored leaves to traverse the full ivory cotton ground from corner to corner, creating a bold folk art composition full of movement and life.
