Pateh Embroidered Brooch – “Lotus” Design
The Lotus Pateh embroidered brooch is a unique fusion of the handcraft traditions of Iranian desert women and the beauty of nature. This distinctive accessory features a lotus flower motif stitched on wool fabric using naturally plant-dyed wool threads. The edges are carefully finished with fine yarn stitching, enhancing both durability and elegance.
This brooch is entirely handcrafted by the skilled women of Shafiabad village in Shahdad, located on the edge of Iran’s Lut Desert—where the heat and dryness of the desert meet creativity and artistry to create such meaningful handmade jewelry.
The lotus flower, or water lily, has roots in the soil, a stem in water, and blooms toward the sun. It is a symbol of purity, spiritual growth, and perfection.

What is Pateh Embroidery?
Pateh embroidery is one of the most authentic forms of Iranian needlework, originating from Kerman province. In this art, motifs inspired by nature—such as flowers, shrubs, cypress trees, and ancient Persian symbols—are stitched with wool threads onto a thick wool fabric. Pateh is a harmonious blend of color, emotion, culture, and patience.
