Kantha, the ancient embroidery tradition from India, can be traced back to the first or second century. The needlework gave new life to old cloth by upcycling and repurposing various fabrics. Traditionally, the technique was used to create quilts, encompassing layers of old cotton or silk cloth sewn together using a running stitch, or kantha stitch, of coarse thread. The J. Catma Kantha Apron now applies this unique approach to exclusively sourced, colorful vintage textiles resulting in these soft, thick, one-of-a-kind aprons. These authentic pieces come directly from artisans in India who curate and produce them in small batches. You won’t find these kitchen accessories anywhere else.
Made from a range of beautiful upcycled textiles, each apron is unique, coming directly from artisans in India who source the colorful vintage fabric and produce them in small batches.
Please note, these aprons are all handmade, no two will be alike. Choose the color way you like, however the exact pattern/patchwork will not exactly the same as shown in the pictures. We love the adjustable neck, as it helps ensure a comfortable fit. And these vibrant, durable aprons are unlikely to fade with use, as they’ve already been pre-washed to ensure their rich colors stay true.
