You love the eclectic, bohemian spaces in the pages of British magazine
Living Etc but you cant quite figure out how to bring it home. For
instant colour, style and cultural richness, start with a kantha throw
or two.
If youre not familiar, kantha is an embroidery technique used by
women in Bangladesh and West Bengal, India. Made from recycled saris and
layered with a simple running stitch, kantha throws live on sofas, beds
and banisters and look best layered in a contrast of colours.
The selection of one-of-a-kind
kanthas at West Elm is rich with floral, geometric, and folk-art
motifs and at $99. Its hard to choose just one. So dont. Athena Tsavliris
