Dating back centuries, Indian women stitched together old saris to create large blankets and floor cloths. We attentively pick each quilt, typically 60-80 years old, with an eye toward material integrity and unusual beauty. You’ll know it’s an aloka quilt by the way it feels. Our one-of-a-kind quilts are shampooed multiple times then softened so it’s easy to snuggle with, never crunchy, and yet durable enough to use for upholstery.
Sometimes we find an unusual batch of quilts, so pristine in condition, quality and pattern design that we purchase the very limited supply, as was the case with these vintage, hand-stitched quilts.
