Ghalamkari (Calico art)

Ghalamkari, Calico work is an art which produces coloured mould cloth used as a tablecloth, table covers, prayer rug, bags, etc. and which is formed by printing on a cotton cloth. Production of colourful designs and printing on the cloth by moulds has apparently been created in the 4th century A.D. in India and from there to Alexandria. Printing on the cloth was evolved in Iran during the Sassanid Dynasty and new techniques were initiated in the decoration of woollen and cotton clothes. This art was extended generally in Isfahan during the Safavid period.

Iranian Art Calligraphy Cup…

I love my Iranian art calligraphy cup! The design is elegant and unique, and the quality of the ceramic is excellent. It shipped fast and came in perfect condition. Using this cup feels like a small daily luxury.

My order was dealt with promply

I sincerely made an error previously when I left a negative review about Persis Collection, in fact I can not be more happy about their services, and the trust worthy of this company, as they try to put things right promply and fully, and assist you where ever possible, therefore as I said earlier I am happy with all aspects of shopping from them, thank you.
