"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.

Lightweight and lovely

This kantha bead necklace is colorful and easy to wear. The beads vary in size and it's easy to wear it with small beads in front or with the larger beads in front. Mieko Mintz has a terrific eye for color and design and this little necklace is proof. (I also purchased the jacket in similar color way- they look great together.
