The journey from Nakshi Kantha to Kantha Saree….
In Bengali literature, we have this epic poem “Nakshi Kanthar Math”. What a beautiful heart touching saga that is…and that’s what is the feel of Kantha stitch saree. Kantha Stitch is very simple but designs are attractive and innovative. You can find intricate patterns of flowers, leaves, birds, or geometrical motif all over the fabric of the saree done with fine colorful threads. The elegance and beauty of Kantha saree are unmistakable and appropriate for any occasion. If you see my Kantha stitch saree collection, you are going to fall in love with it.
