A Termeh tablecloth with Zardozi embroidery is a beautiful and ornate piece of textile that combines two rich and traditional art forms. Let’s delve into what each of these elements means:
- Termeh Tablecloth: As previously mentioned, Termeh is a high-quality handwoven textile that has been produced in Iran for centuries. It’s known for its intricate patterns and vibrant colours. In the context of a tablecloth, Termeh is used to create a luxurious and decorative covering for a dining table, adding both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
- Zardozi Embroidery: Zardozi is a highly skilled and elaborate form of hand embroidery that originated in Persia and later spread to India and other parts of the world. Zardozi embroidery uses metallic threads (often gold or silver) along with silk threads and various other decorative elements such as sequins, beads, and gemstones to create intricate and intricate patterns on fabric. The word “Zardozi” itself means “gold embroidery” in Persian. Zardozi’s work is known for its opulence and is traditionally used to embellish clothing, textiles, and other luxury items.
When you combine Termeh and Zardozi embroidery, you get a tablecloth that’s not just functional but also a work of art. The Zardozi embroidery adds an element of opulence, grandeur, and intricate detailing to the already beautiful Termeh fabric. The combination of the two art forms results in a unique and exquisite tablecloth that can be used for special occasions, formal dining, or as a decorative centrepiece in your home. These tablecloths are often handmade by skilled artisans and can be considered a symbol of cultural heritage and craftsmanship.
Termeh tablecloth ironing and maintenance:
These types of fabrics have more longevity because of their higher-density structure.
Some colours, especially darker shades, are more sensitive to direct sunlight and humidity and might change their original colour if exposed to those elements.
Washing Termeh tablecloths with water, detergents, and high-temperature ironing can damage the fabric.
The best way to keep this red runner with Zardozi embroidery (Termeh) clean and fresh is to gently comb it with a wet sheet of clean fabric and if ironing is necessary only use a medium iron setting with steam.
