Description

A visually exciting bread sofreh from the Kamo area of north-central Persia, woven at the end of the 19th century.
The ground is woven in un-dyed camel-hair and the weaver has incorporated what appear like 'eyes' in beautiful natural colours of light and dark blue, ivory, green and different shades of red.
In very good original condition, this sofreh would have been used for kneading the dough to make the delicious flat-bread (lavash).
Size: 1.32 x 0.95m (4' 4" x 3' 1").
Viewing by appointment only.
Internal Ref: BM/LPN
