Soft fabric beads are sewn from vintage saris, stitched with kantha embroidery, and filled with lightweight cotton batting, creating a necklace that is both bold and fun. Silk cord has glass beads on the ends allowing the necklace to be convertible from a choker to 36" long. Each is unique. Bead colors and patterns will vary.

"Traditionally, kantha were supposed to help keep their wearers safe from harm and aid in obtaining happiness and prosperity, all of which Mieko wishes for you."

Born in southern Japan, Mieko Mintz uses handcrafted textiles from around the world to make contemporary pieces. Her signature line includes jackets made from vintage sari kantha, each with its own variety of colors and its own story.

Mintz's work follows in the kantha tradition. First, her designs are made into kantha throws in West Bengal, which she then cuts to fit her jacket designs. Her focus is a kantha line that is not only comfortable, but also contemporary and sophisticated.

Cuttings left over from making the jackets are recycled one more time to create hats, bags, and jewelry.

Beautiful pieces

I love my necklaces and the colors are perfect. My only issue would be if the beads could be a bit smaller?

I love this!

I love this necklace. It is certainly original, comfy to wear, equally appropriate for casual or dressy occasions. I receive admiring comments every time I have it on. I just ordered another necklace for a friend's birthday, and I was pleased to see that the beads, also gorgeous, are completely different than mine. No two are alike.
