Kantha vintage %2326 unique piece 145 x 235 cm
Information
Large size and superb colors: floral in shades of sage green and ecru on the front, bright red with hints of bright orange on the reverse.
Saris are assembled together manually by women in the villages of Bengal and northern India, to form a lightly quilted fabric (this is the ancestor of our boutis and quilts). The front and back being made of separate saris are totally different and we therefore have a 2 in 1 hanging.
Note that this ancestral artisanal technique includes the use of small repair patches when necessary. This contributes to the uniqueness and authenticity of the kantha.

Grande taille et superbes coloris : floral dans un camaïeu de verts sauge et écru au recto, rouge éclatant avec des notes d'orange vif au verso.
Les saris sont assemblés ensemble manuellement par les femmes dans les villages du Bengale et du nord de l'Inde, pour former une étoffe légèrement matelassée (c'est l'ancêtre de nos boutis et quilts). Le recto et le verso étant fait de saris séparés sont totalement différents et on a donc une tenture 2 en 1.
A noter que cette technique ancestrale artisanale intègre l'utilisation de petits patchs de réparation quand cela est nécessaire. Cela contribue à l'unicité et l'authenticité du kantha.

In 2003 Lilo and David, great travelers, returned from an 18-month world tour and created Maison Lilo, a human-sized company which offers soft, bohemian and slow-living collections with a vintage twist (Lilo is a great aficionado of flea markets, which are a constant source of inspiration for her) born from their meetings with talented artisans. Admirers of the centuries-old know-how discovered during their travels and the beauty of handmade work, Lilo and David are keen to share and highlight craftsmanship in all its forms, from embroidery to block printing, including metal work, blown glass and carpet weaving. Our collections are imagined and designed in France then manufactured in family workshops, in Provence, our stronghold, for our scents, in India for our printed and embroidered trays and textiles. Lilo, a big fan of flea markets, second hands and upcycling, has always created, in parallel with the Maison Lilo decoration collection, a line of clothing, fashion accessories and unique decorative pieces made from upcycled fabrics (silk saris, cotton saris transformed into kantha and other upcycled materials) and offers here her pieces but also her favorites purchased during travels such as superb old carpets. Very beautiful, unique pieces that add an authentic touch to the store.
