Over 340 hours
This reversible coat is crafted with over 340 hours of artisanal work across three layers of fabric. Each piece features the signature Kantha embroidery, a traditional Bengali technique where skilled artisans use running stitches to create intricate, textured patterns that are both beautiful and durable. The result is a lightweight yet structured coat that feels as special as it looks.
Two coats in one
A striking red and grey palette, with bold red on one side complementing the sophisticated grey on the reverse: two distinct looks in one garment. Fully reversible, it lets you switch between the vibrant red and the subtle grey depending on your mood or occasion.
Button and pockets
A single-button front closure with a distinctive circular button detail for an elegant finish, along with four patch pockets that add practical functionality without compromising the clean silhouette.
The patch
A delightful contrasting embroidery patch, where the embroidery style shifts, creates visual interest and highlights the handcrafted nature of the piece.
The soul of the garment
What makes this Kantha coat truly unique is the human touch behind it. Those 340-plus hours represent countless days of meticulous hand-stitching by master artisans who have inherited and perfected this ancient craft. The three-layered construction adds warmth and structure, and honours the traditional Kantha practice of repurposing and layering fabrics with love and care.
The piece
Red and Grey Reversible Kantha Coat
Red on one side, grey on the other, and both sides are the front. Four patch pockets, one round button, and a small panel where the embroidery changes its mind and starts running a different way. It is the piece people in the studio pick up first.
