In Persian hospitality, the sofreh is more than a cloth. It is a ground for gathering — fruit, bread, tea, conversation — a surface that says: sit, you are welcome.
When we design runners and table textiles, we think of that invitation. Motifs travel across languages because the gesture is shared: beauty placed where people meet. A runner can dress a Warsaw dining table or a picnic blanket and still carry the warmth of its cultural root.
Cotton keeps the idea practical. Soft enough for daily use, strong enough for seasons of washing, quiet enough that pattern remains the voice. That is how a sofreh-inspired piece finds a home far from where the idea first bloomed.
