Sari silk scarves 85x190 cm round kantha embroidery
At MASALA, our heart beats for Indian craftsmanship, beautiful textiles, and materials with a story. Our sari silk scarves are created from traditional vintage saris from India, which are given new life as colorful and exclusive accessories.
Each scarf is unique. Colors, patterns, and small traces from the sari's previous life mean that no two are exactly alike. It is precisely the variations and the history in the fabric that give our sari silk scarves their special character.
Hand-stitched Kantha scarves made from recycled sari silk
Many of our silk scarves are sewn using the traditional Kantha technique, where layers of vintage sari are joined with characteristic, close Kantha running stitches.
The stitches hold the soft silk layers together and simultaneously create the vibrant texture that characterizes Kantha craftsmanship. The result is a light and soft scarf with colors and patterns on both sides – created from textiles that have already lived a life.
By reusing existing sari fabrics, we utilize beautiful materials that could otherwise be lost, while allowing traditional Indian craft techniques to live on.
Find your personal silk scarf
Whether you are looking for a narrow silk scarf for everyday use or a larger silk shawl that can be draped over the shoulders, you will find various sizes in our collection.
We have divided the scarves by measurement, so you can easily find the size that suits you – including our popular Kantha silk scarves in 40 × 190 cm with fine round Kantha embroidery
Silk feels light and comfortable against the skin and can be used all year round. Wear the scarf around your neck, over your shoulders, with a simple shirt, or as a colorful element over a jacket or dress.
A scarf with its own story
When you choose a sari silk scarf from MASALA, you are not choosing a mass-produced accessory. You are choosing a handmade unique piece, where vintage textiles, Indian craftsmanship, and new ideas meet.
When a specific scarf is sold, the exact same one usually does not return. However, we continuously find new vintage saris and new color combinations in India, so the collection is constantly changing.
