This beautiful vintage Sofreh originates from northeast Iran, where such textiles have long played an essential role in daily life. Traditionally used as a floor cloth for dining, Sofrehs were placed on the ground for families to sit around and share meals—a practice rooted in communal warmth and hospitality.

Finely woven with impressive attention to detail, this piece stands out for its delightful array of animal motifs, including peacocks, birds, and goats, all artfully spread across the surface. These motifs are not only decorative but also hold symbolic meaning in Persian tribal culture, representing abundance, protection, and beauty in nature.

Though originally utilitarian, this Sofreh is versatile in modern interiors—its size and fine craftsmanship make it ideal for use as a hallway runner, table runner, or even as wall art in curated spaces.

The textile’s heritage, narrative richness, and balance of function and ornamentation make it a charming and authentic piece of nomadic Iranian culture.
