Document Details : Title: Safavid Brocades from Iran Subtitle: An Attempt at Classification Author(s): ROUHFAR, Zohreh Journal: Khil'a Volume: 2 Date: 2006 Pages: 121-135 DOI: 10.2143/KH.2.0.2021288 Abstract : This article discusses ten pieces of brocade now housed in the Islamic Period Museum in Tehran, Iran, dating from the Safavid period (early sixteenth to middle of the eighteenth centuries).
