Many of us don’t know about the Kantha work. People likes to wear different patterns and designs of clothes. The Kantha work is one of the embroidery used on the discarded apparel, transforming them into extraordinarily renewed creations with extended life. A unique traditional art from Murshidabad in former Bengal state, and now the current west Bengal and Bihar, it has been instrumental in empowering rural women with a supplemental source of income.


Kantha work is essentially embroidery work done on old sarees, dhotis and other apparel. Popular and practiced in Bengal, especially in Bholpur and bihar, it is a running stitch on the sarees in the form of motifs such as animals, birds, flowers, simple geometrical shapes and scenes from everyday life.

Kantha originated from the way in which Bengali women mended their old clothes from a strand of thread from the colorful border of their saris and made designs with them. Any work in which Kantha embroidery is done is sometimes referred to as a Kantha. A craft of skill widely practiced by women in rural Bengal, it knows on boundaries of  class status. Be it a woman in a small village or a rich landlady, both devote their skills and talents to use Kantha for their clothing, either out of need or just out of interest.

The salwar kameez transforms old clothes into extraordinarily new creations. Other forms of stitch such as darning stitch, satin stitch and loop stitch are also used. Kantha stitching is also used in making of quilts, known as Nakshi Kantha. Woman uses old dress materials and other cloth, layering them with the Kantha stitch to make small blankets and bedspreads for children.


In today’s trend the time is less and economic activity for rural women to supplement the meager income of their households. Many do a lot of Kantha work for traders in Kolkata. The price of Kantha embroidered salwar kameez depends on the cost of the fabric and the patterns used to decorate them. Borders and pallus of the chunni is especially are well-adorned by exquisite Kantha work.

Kantha gives a wide range of garments such as sarees, dupattas, shirts, dress materials, shirts, bedding and a variety of other fabrics in cotton and silk. Old salwar kameez, dhotis, and saris are transformed by Kantha work to serve as gifts for beloved ones. Based on the use of the fabric, Kantha is divided into seven different types.
