for everyone |
Termeh a traditional fabric used in formal dresses and clothing is of intricate designs integrating paisley, floral and natural forms in to multiple layers of silk, cotton and often precious metal threads of gold and silver. Termeh was often used as the material of choice for designing the clothing and uniforms worn by statesmen and nobility, and is now used for formal and traditional functions. A form of Termeh is used as a fabric on furniture. Yazd probably developed its traditional textiles industry due to its proximity to trade routes including the Silk Road leading to and from south east Asia across to Africa, Near East and Europe.

 | Oh! I'm the first person here! Now.. let me read the article... LOL! |
| Hi again! This is quite interesting! It reminds me of the Japanese kimono fabric!
I like the painting on the right! Is that something from around the Safavid Dynasty times?
So, if I have the opportunity to ask a Persian salesman, he will know what i mean if I ask about Termeh? Maybe next time I go to Dubai... many Iranians live there! :)
Thank you again for the interesting Persian culture! I feel like your page is becoming for a mix of an art studio, cultural embassy, and my new aunties living room!
Aloha!

Jesse  thanks my love !! the painting is from Qajar Dynasty ,but Termeh also was usfuil on Safavieh proud too, but to day they use that for wedding :The spread that is used on the floor as the backdrop for Sofreh-ye Aghd was traditionally passed from mother to daughter (or occasionally son). The spread is made of a luxurious fabric such as "Termeh" (Cashmere: A rich gold embroidered fabric originally made in Cashmere from the soft wool found beneath the hair of the goats of Cashmere, Tibet, and the Himalayas), "Atlas" (Gold embroidered satin) or "Abrisham" (Silk).
