Persian handcraft, apart from being an applied branch of art, is a place for the nurture of cultural beliefs and creative notions of people and kinfolk. One can suppose that the major cause for the endurance of Persian handcrafts over centuries is nothing more than its usage; whether as a decorative or an exploitable item. Handcrafts bought two advantages, first, the industry that provided them with financial support by selling the items, and second, the social status; meaning that each tribe had their own design, pattern, and colors for expressing their tradition values and, moreover, for communication.Traditional sewing on fine fabrics is a major Persian handcraft; they are often created by tribal women whose talent is stemmed from their source of inspiration and delicate taste of art and bring about financial prosperity. The needlework of the women of two famous Persian tribes, Turkmen and Balooch, are examples of this art. Nowadays, this handcraft has managed to preserve its historical value and is revived by maintaining the same national and historical identity.Many magnificent and valuable needlework have entered the handcraft market.
