Walk through traditional weaving house

iFilm English Website offers a virtual trip to the Traditional Weaving House of Isfahan, also known as Sheikh ol-Eslam House.

This tour is a whole package of seeing an ancient old Persian house with its breathtaking architectural specificity that entails mirror-works and tile-works on the walls, three-dimensional decorative elements of Muqarnas, and much more.

Besides, as the house was originally constructed during the Safavid era, it went through restoration. Following the renovations, a textile museum was established inside the house that makes it another worthwhile reason for this tour.

This museum is home to some traditional weaving looms, thread production tools and fabrics such as cashmere and velvet. Walking through the museum, visitors can see some wax statues that represent famous textile masters in their workshops weaving traditional fabrics.

Last but not the least about the traditional house, one of its sections is dedicated to active artisans of the province working with machines and creating works of art.
