Persian Hand-Embroidered Square Tablecloth – South Khorasan

This richly worked Persian hand-embroidered square tablecloth comes from South Khorasan, Iran. Its warm ivory ground is filled with an elaborate garden-like composition: a large circular floral medallion at the centre, branching flowers and leaves, and multiple framed borders combining botanical and geometric ornament.

The palette of deep pink, red, blue, green, orange and burgundy gives the textile a vivid yet balanced character. Close-up views reveal dense hand stitching and careful outlining throughout the floral forms. The piece is completed with a satin lining and a neat gold-tone decorative edge, giving it a polished finish for a dining table, side table, display surface or textile-focused interior.

The supplied description identifies the work as pateh embroidery (پته‌دوزی). Established references on Iranian crafts particularly associate traditional pata-duzi with Kerman. Iran, however, has a broad range of regional embroidery traditions. For cultural accuracy, Cheragh therefore describes this item as a Persian hand-embroidered textile from South Khorasan while retaining “pateh” as the supplied description rather than presenting it as a historically native South Khorasan technique.
