Kantha Stitching: A Timeless Craft from West Bengal

Kantha stitching is a centuries-old embroidery and quilting tradition from rural West Bengal, India. Using simple running stitches, artisans transform old cotton or silk saris into stunning, repurposed textiles. This sustainable art form turns discarded fabrics into unique, functional pieces—ranging from quilts and furniture covers to designer jackets and coats.


SoukUk & Brisas Creative Centre Collaboration


Through our partnership with the Brisas Creative Centre in West Bengal, SoukUk connects UK designers, high-street retailers, and boutiques directly with the artisans. Buyers can conveniently browse and select quilts online, choosing pieces that align with current trends and customer preferences. Unlike typical importers, SoukUk bridges the gap between the artisans’ traditional skills and the UK market’s evolving demands, ensuring access to high-quality recycled textiles at the best prices.
