Production
Free shipping worldwide, arrives in 5–10 business days.
Every piece is made to order. Nothing sits in a warehouse — your print is produced after you order it, at the facility closest to your address. That means it reaches you faster, travels less distance, and arrives with a smaller carbon footprint than something shipped from a single central location.
Returns & Our Guarantee
Every piece is made to order just for you, so we can't accept returns for change of mind. But you're fully covered: if your piece arrives damaged, defective, or isn't what you ordered, we'll replace it free or refund you in full — and you won't need to ship it back.
A noblewoman sits for her portrait beside the New Year table, painted in the manner of Qajar court oils. She wears a jeweled headpiece with a black aigrette, a blue velvet jacket worked in pearls, and a wide skirt of red and gold silk; behind her the wall is hung with carpets, and the haft-sin is laid on a termeh cloth at her elbow.
- Qajar portrait conventions throughout — frontal pose, large dark eyes, joined brows, a small painted mouth
- Pearl and enamel jewellery over a velvet jacket, and a floral silk skirt with patterned borders
- The haft-sin with sabzeh under a red ribbon, apples, garlic, saffron, vinegar, coins and a goldfish bowl
- A silver-framed mirror and three lit candles behind the table
- A carved European armchair and layered carpets, both of them Qajar-era imports into Persian rooms
- Deep oil-painting color: crimson, indigo, gold and umber
The joined eyebrows are not a flourish. In Qajar portraiture they were a mark of beauty, painted in deliberately, and they are one of the surest ways to date an Iranian picture to the nineteenth century.
Perfect for
- A Nowruz table or seasonal display
- Collectors of Qajar and Persian portraiture
- A living room or study that suits a dark, rich painting
- Nowruz gifts for family abroad
