{"product_id":"saskatoon-vintage-handmade-bagru-block-print-kantha-throw","title":"Saskatoon Vintage Handmade Bagru Block Print Kantha Throw","description":"\u003cp\u003eRooted in a centuries-old tradition from Rajasthan — the Saskatoon Vintage Handmade Bagru Block Print Kantha Throw is a vintage piece with a story already written into it. Hand block-printed in the ancient Bagru tradition and finished with fine hand-run Kantha stitching across the surface, each throw is crafted by skilled artisans using intricately carved wooden blocks and natural dyes: deep indigo from indigofera plants, rust red from madder root, iron black from rust and tannin. The fabric is prepared through a traditional mordanting process before printing, so the colours bond deeply with the cotton and age beautifully over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause these are vintage pieces, the cotton carries a soft, naturally washed quality — subtly faded, gently worn — giving each throw the quiet warmth of something that has already lived a little. The Kantha stitching runs in fine, delicate rows across the surface, creating the gentlest ripple on the thin cotton without bulk or heaviness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLook closely and you'll see the soft, slightly fuzzy edges of each block stamp — a hallmark of authentic hand printing — and the gentle variation in ink depth that no machine can replicate. No two pieces are ever identical. These are not mass-produced — they are made slowly, by hand, in the way they always have been.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDetails\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 6 ft by 4 ft Approximately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% Cotton: Single layer of plain-weave vintage cotton — soft, flat, breathable, and beautifully matte.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTechnique: Traditional Bagru hand block printing with natural dyes (indigo, madder, iron), finished with fine hand-run Kantha stitching.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTexture: Flat and crisp with a warm matte finish — the natural dye sits very slightly raised on the woven surface, with the finest Kantha stitch ripple across the cotton.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMotifs: Bold, large-scale traditional Bagru designs — floral, botanical, or geometric with confident handcrafted linework.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVintage Character: Naturally washed and softened cotton with a gently aged quality — a true heirloom piece.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlease note: Soft print edges, slight ink variation, minor registration differences, and the natural variation of the Kantha stitching are authentic hallmarks of this handmade vintage piece, making yours truly one-of-a-kind.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Kokum Tree","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47639255711881,"sku":null,"price":135.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/4124\/0713\/files\/IMG_8228_vintage_collage.jpg?v=1784316544","url":"https:\/\/thekokumtree.com\/products\/saskatoon-vintage-handmade-bagru-block-print-kantha-throw","provider":"The Kokum Tree","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
