Description
The traditional Iranian Poshti is a handcrafted backrest pillow made from Persian carpets or kilims, symbolizing the rich cultural heritage of Iran. These cushions are rectangular or wedge-shaped, designed to provide comfortable support when sitting on the floor or lounging on low platforms. Adorned with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, the designs often mirror those of Persian rugs, featuring floral, geometric, or medallion motifs. Crafted with durable materials, the outer layer is made from handwoven fabrics, while the filling is typically cotton or wool, ensuring firmness and longevity. Poshtis are a staple in traditional Iranian homes, often used in "Takht" (wooden daybeds) or alongside floor seating arrangements during gatherings. Beyond functionality, they serve as decorative elements, adding warmth and elegance to interiors. These cushions reflect the artistry of Persian craftsmanship, showcasing meticulous attention to detail. Each piece tells a story of tradition, blending utility with timeless beauty.
