Soft beige tussar silk with plum Kantha butas spaced across the body, finished with a wide plum border and a densely worked pallu. The matte texture of tussar keeps the contrast crisp and the fall lightly structured.

Wear it for daytime gatherings, hosted lunches, and unhurried celebrations—easy through seated conversation, composed when you’re moving around. It reads fresh in natural light and stays calm indoors.

A dependable day-event option with enough detail to feel finished. The scattered butas make it repeatable, and the pallu gives a clear close when the setting turns more formal.

Artisan

Embroidered by women artisans working under the stewardship of Takdira Begam, whose lifelong commitment to Kantha has helped preserve and elevate the practice beyond household use. Her work emphasises skill transmission, dignity of labour, and continuity — recognised nationally with the Padma Shri.

Craft Lore

Kantha is created through continuous hand stitching that builds texture gradually over the fabric. The character of the textile emerges through repetition, irregularity, and the quiet persistence of handwork.

Origin

Nakshi Kantha from West Bengal, India.
GI registered.

Care & Longevity

Care is about attentiveness, not intervention.

We recommend allowing time between wears and avoiding unnecessary cleaning. When needed, gentle hand care or professional dry cleaning is preferable. Frequent washing, harsh detergents, or prolonged soaking can affect texture and finish over time.

Natural variations in tone or softness may emerge with wear. These changes are part of living with handwoven materials and reflect use rather than wear-out.

Thoughtful care allows what you choose to remain with you for years, not seasons.

Shipping & Returns

Each order is prepared with attention and care before it leaves us.

We ship from the United States, and most orders are dispatched within 2–3 business days of confirmation. Once shipped, you will receive tracking details to follow its progress. Delivery timelines may vary depending on location and carrier conditions.

Should you have any questions regarding dispatch or delivery, our team is available at info@divasutra.com

Important Information

Handwoven traditions involve human skill and judgement at every stage. As a result, subtle variations in weave, texture, colour, or alignment may be present. These variations are inherent to handloom practices and are considered a mark of authenticity rather than imperfection.

We make every effort to represent colours accurately; however, screen displays may vary. Minor differences should be expected and do not affect the integrity or quality of what you receive.
