Dove has subtle shades of blue-grey handprinted on an ethereal handwoven cotton silk ground. A broad storm-cloud grey panel adds grounding to this lofty quilt.
Women artisans traditionally sew quilts as heirlooms in West Bengal, using the Kantha technique over four weeks. Carefully selected cotton thread colors give structure, rhythm, and life to the composition. A vivid flourish of peacock blue, sewn in a heavier thread, arcs in a scrolling line from one side of the quilt to the other.

Will it fit my bed?
At ~60” × ~90” (152 × 228 cm), Dove works beautifully as a throw or coverlet on a Twin or Full bed, and as a decorative layer on a Queen. It is not intended as a full-coverage duvet on a King. See our quilt sizes guide for a full bed-size comparison.
What makes Dove special?
The colorway. Dove is built on an ethereal blue-grey palette — subtle, calming, and deeply considered. The signature detail is a vivid peacock blue thread that arcs in a scrolling line from one side of the quilt to the other, sewn in a heavier thread for a tactile flourish you can feel as well as see.
Can I use it as a sofa throw?
Absolutely. Its generous size and lightweight silk-cotton blend make it ideal as a sofa drape or layering piece. The Kantha stitching adds texture and warmth without bulk.
How is each quilt unique?
Because Dove is hand silk-screened and Kantha-stitched in small batches, no two quilts are identical. Slight variations in print placement, thread color, and stitch density are hallmarks of authentic handcraft — not imperfections.
How long does it take to make?
Each quilt takes up to four weeks to complete. The Kantha stitching alone — thousands of running stitches sewn entirely by hand — accounts for most of that time.
What is Kantha?
Kantha is a centuries-old South Asian quilting tradition originating in West Bengal. It uses a simple running stitch to bind layers of cloth, creating a subtly rippled texture. Our artisans carry this heritage technique into every piece.
Can I wash it at home?
We recommend dry cleaning to preserve the silk fibers and printed colors. If you prefer to wash at home, use a delicate cycle with cold water and a gentle detergent, then lay flat to dry. Avoid tumble drying.
