INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
the Handicraft Union of Isfahan, said on Monday.Taj said a great deal of effort should be dedicated to registering Iranian handicrafts
Our next nominees will be Qalamzani (the traditional art of painting motifs on metal objects) and Chalangari (traditional blacksmithing),
Taj explained.International registration of handcart fields can promote economic value for artists practicing those skills which ultimately
empower local communities, he said.Qalamkari is a type of textile printing using hand-carved wooden stamps to cover the textile with
oriental and Iranian motifs and designs, including flora and fauna, arabesques, geometric designs, hunting scenes, Persian calligraphy,
etc.These delicate and eye-catching ornaments and designs are usually derived from other Iranian arts and handicrafts like Persian carpets
and tile works of Iranian mosques to remind the magical beauty of the thousands of flowers in Persian gardens.There is no reliable reference
to when exactly Qalamkari art was invented, but according to Arthur Pope, this art existed in Iran during the Ghaznavid era
During the kingdom of Shah Abbas, the Safavid king, this art flourished.Qalamkari is usually printed on cotton, silk, canvas, and fustian
was registered as the world handicrafts city by the World Crafts Council in 2015 after numerous follow-ups by national and provincial
registration of handicraft hubs has a special effect on the sustainable development of local tourism.To promote their capabilities and the
growth of tourism, cities, and villages with a rich cultural heritage and distinctive handicrafts should be globally registered, the
official suggested.Isfahan enjoys strong handicraft capabilities, as evidenced by the 126 international and 528 national seals of excellence
sightseers, Isfahan is filled with many architectural wonders, such as unmatched Islamic buildings, bazaars, museums, Persian gardens, and
It's a city for walking, getting lost in its mazing bazaars, dozing in beautiful gardens, and meeting people.AFM
