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.

Condition: These are high-quality vintage pieces that we have salvaged, shampooed, softened, AND over-dyed in our custom botanical hue. We embrace the charm of the little imperfections, texture, and tones created over time and in this creative coloring process. We take photos in natural light and with limited editing to reflect its condition.

Fabric: Repurposed textile (mostly cotton)

Size: 54" X 75"

Weight: Midweight + Furniture Friendly (meaning this quilt is a good candidate for upholstery)

Origin: Sourced and prepared in India. Shipped from our Athens, GA studio.

Care: Dry clean recommended. If preferred, machine wash cold on gentle cycle and air dry. Wash separately. Our dyes are colorfast but with bright tones some bleeding could tint other pieces if not washed separately.
