Giveh or Givah (Persian: گیوه‎)is a kind of soft, comfortable, durable and handmade shoe that is common in several parts of Iran especially in rural and mountainous areas of Kermanshah Province. The production centers of Giveh are the provinces of Yazd and Kermanshah in Iran.

Giveh is made up of two parts: sole and upper. The sole is usually made of rubber or leather and the upper is made of fabric created using an ancient technique known as nalbinding (not weaving) that pre-dates knitting or crochet. Before the arrival of the rubber industry to the area, Giveh-makers would use a kind of wild-bull leather to make giveh and the upper was made of wool or cotton nalbound fabric. Most rich people would wear them. Since the arrival of the rubber industry, lower-class people have used rubber as the sole of their givehs.

Persian Giveh

Giveh is a type of traditional summer footwear, known for its lightness, durability, and suitability for long walks. Deeply rooted in Kurdish culture, this footwear is particularly made for men and is a celebrated craft in various provinces including Lorestan, Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari, Kurdistan, Kermanshah, Ilam, Fars, Hamedan, Qazvin, Zanjan, Ilam-Kermanshah, Kurdistan, and West Azerbaijan. The entire production process of Giveh is manual, typically using carpet yarn, silk threads, and soles made from fabric, leather, or rubber.

Kurds refer to Giveh as ‘Kalash’ while the Lors call it ‘Azhieh.’

Originally, Giveh is not exclusive to any one tribe but is primarily associated with the Lors, Kurds, and Laks. Some Turks also adopt Giveh as footwear. It is particularly renowned as a regional souvenir from Lorestan, Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari, Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad, Kurdistan, and Kermanshah.

Quality Handmade Items

My latest order from the Persis Collection was their minakari clock with Persian/Arabic numbers, which got here a few days ago. It arrived the same day as the replacement they had offered me for a minakari decanter I had previously ordered that had arrived damaged. Both pieces are hand-painted, and the intricacy of the design is incredible. They really brighten up the room, and also go well with a Mahmoud Farshchian print I have, as he uses those same celestial blue colors in his art. Thanks again to Arya for the great customer service!

Persian Backgammon Board with Flower and Chicken Design…

I was amazed by the craftsmanship of the Persian backgammon board I ordered. The intricate flower and chicken design is even more beautiful in person. It shipped quickly, was well-packaged, and arrived in perfect condition. This board has become a centerpiece during our game nights. Highly recommend!
