Ghalamkari Unveiled: A Journey into Persian Artistry
Ghalamkari is one of the traditional arts of Isfahan, an art form that, like many other handicrafts, is at risk of fading into obscurity. For years, beautifully decorated calligraphic tablecloths with the taste of authentic Iranian flavors were an integral part of our memories. Fabrics adorned with this art form were present in various corners of our lives. In this experience, we invite you to visit one of the best and most amiable Ghalamkari masters, Mr. Abad. Together, we will spend a few hours in his workshop.
We will begin our journey from the Hozek residence. We’ll converse about Ghalamkari and then head to Mr. Abad’s workshop with the trim fabric bags we will provide you. We will become acquainted with various Ghalamkari templates and styles in the workshop. You will learn to make ink and apply Ghalamkari to the fabric we’ve provided or on your clothing. This artistry will serve as a lasting memento for you to cherish.
