    Overview

    The prosperity of Kashan in the medieval era depended on the road connecting two ends of the world. For centuries, precious fabrics of silk and velvet were traded between nations. Now, pieces of these treasures are found in the well-known museums across the world.  Kashan has so much to offer for textile lovers, designers and weavers. Join us in this tour and experience a guided visit to Sharbafi (silk textile craft) workshop and Tabatabaei historical house

    What To Expect

    We pick you up at your accommodation and start our tour to one of the oldest workshops which produces hand-woven silk textiles, sharbafi, in Kashan. These hand-woven silk fabrics used to be objects of favor for the kings. After being presented with an introduction to the art of Sharbafi and gaining enough knowledge about the structure of the loom, we will observe the real weaving techniques for producing this textile. The patterns of these fabrics are improvised and you can enjoy the spontaneous play of color and thread and take them home as a souvenir.  Then, we walk in the old neighborhoods of Kashan to visit one of the most beautiful houses of the city, Tabatabei house.
