Kantha Patch Utility Jacket | black & gold reversible
We’re extremely fond of our *fully reversible!!* & zero-waste patch kantha jackets! The style is eminently suitable for those with an artistic disposition - each piece is a work of textile art that showcases a range of India’s finest textiles, held together with very fine double kantha.
This is a conversation starter and a veritable textile atlas of India: each piece utilises fabric we've created with our partners across India, including but not limited to: kantha, block print, clamp dye, bandhani, block print, ajrakh, dabu, jamdani, ikat...
- Fully reversible - one side in patchwork; the reverse in a plainer and beautifully matched colour, letting the kantha take center stage
- Oversized, wide cut body with dropped shoulders and full length sleeves that look best rolled up
- High collar
- Closes in front with hand beaten brass buttons
- Straight cut hemline
- Patch pockets in lower front
- Crafted from hand patched & quilted cloth. The patches are cuttings of our pre-consumer waste cloth, combined in stunning colourways, then carefully cut, positioned and hand-stitched in place. The patches have raw edges which may result in loose threads; some coats have more than others. The cloth is then covered in fine, double kantha - tight rows of hand-embroidery running both lengthwise & widthwise across the cloth.
- All orders come lovingly packed in upcycled silk bags.
