Khamma Ghani Bold Cotton Morha / Pouffe Cover Kantha Work

What makes the Bold cover stand out?

Golden yellow dominates the patchwork, with floral panels in pink, purple, white and red, white tassels, and a trim along the top edge. The sunny base draws the eye wherever you put it, so it works best as the single statement piece in a seating area.

Who makes it?

It comes directly from Keshav, an artisan in Barmer, Rajasthan. The fabric uses Barmer printing, the traditional natural-colour technique of the chhipa printers, and the cover is stitched with the Kantha technique, combining two hand crafts in one piece.

Are small irregularities normal?

Yes. Minor irregularities are part of handcrafted work and are what make each piece individual. Hand printing and hand stitching never give machine-perfect lines, and the patches also differ from cover to cover, though the overall colour stays similar.

What size morha does it fit?

The cover is 22 inches across and 22 inches high. Pick a morha or pouffe filler of about that size and it takes on a neat, rounded shape; a much smaller stool will leave the fabric loose.

Where can I place it at home?

Use it as extra seating in the living room, as a footrest beside an armchair, or in a kids' room or balcony where its cheerful yellow fits easily. Against white, grey or indigo walls the golden base looks especially warm.
