Ghalamkari (Calico art)

Ghalamkari, Calico work is an art which produces coloured mould cloth used as a tablecloth, table covers, prayer rug, bags, etc. and which is formed by printing on a cotton cloth. Production of colourful designs and printing on the cloth by moulds has apparently been created in the 4th century A.D. in India and from there to Alexandria. Printing on the cloth was evolved in Iran during the Sassanid Dynasty and new techniques were initiated in the decoration of woollen and cotton clothes. This art was extended generally in Isfahan during the Safavid period.

Exceptional Shopping Experience!

I recently shopped from an online boutique and was thoroughly impressed. The selection was excellent, and I easily found what I needed. The entire process, from browsing to checkout, was smooth and user-friendly. Customer service was exceptional; they were quick to assist and genuinely cared about my satisfaction. My order arrived promptly, well-packaged, and exactly as described. I highly recommend them for anyone seeking quality products and outstanding service. Will definitely be back for more!

Product Quality and Customer Service

The products looked as gorgeous as the photos on the website. The shipping to Canada took a bit of a long time, but the Persis team was very responsive when I asked them about the reason and status updates. Would definitely order from them again!
