Iranian Termeh → Termeh — The current title is overprecise because there is no other similarly-named article to cause confusion. 90.200.179.10 (talk) 15:53, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
Survey
[edit]- Support. I googled Termeh -wikipedia and the first page of results all look relevant to this subject -- none of them refer to the city in Turkey. Kauffner (talk) 01:56, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Termeh is a cloth that has been woven since the Safavid era in Iran. There is an argument between researchers about its origin. In the past, the first step in termeh weaving was preparing its raw materials. So it was very important to be careful while preparing wool, washing and drying it. Weaving termeh needs proper wool which has long fibres. Usually, the designs of Iranian termeh were the result of the co-operation between two main persons – an expert and a worker. Weaving termeh was a very careful, sensitive and time-consuming work that a good weaver could produce only 25 to 30 centimetres (1 feet) in a day. The background colours which are used in termeh are mostly jujube red, light red, green, orange and black. Termeh as a valuable textile has many different usages and patterns such as
- Checked pattern which is like a beehive and is used for a tablecloth.
- Stripped pattern which is of two models – narrow and wide striped.
- Atabaki pattern which was one of the kashmiri’s termeh used for expensive fabric because it was a finely woven termeh. Usually, nobles and aristocrats used it as costly and nice cloth.
- Zomorrodi pattern in which the green colour was used more than the others.
- Kashmiri (cashmere) in which the shape of deer’s horn was used for its design.
Termeh is a very durable cloth in which fixed colors are used so it can be washed and dried easily. Nowadays termeh is mostly used for a collectable tablecloth. These tablecloth are usually decorated with elaborate Persian embroidery called “sermeh doozy”.
