Kantha

"Kantha" is an Eastern Indian handcraft used to create one-of-a-kind textiles made by layering, patching, repairing and hand stitching pieces of fabric together. The result is a rich patina of patterned fabric in random placements and covered in tiny hand stitches giving it a distinct and instantly recognizable texture. Each Kantha garment is totally unique, and the Universal Works Kantha Collection brings with it an opportunity for you to own an iconic UW style, safe in the knowledge that it’s the only one on the planet.
