Pateh

[edit]

Pateh (Persian: پته, IPA: pæteh) is a traditional needlework folk art. It is originated and produced primarily in Kerman province, in Iran. Pateh is made by women of Kerman. Colorful threads on a wide piece of cloth which is called Ariz are used to decorate it with traditional designs.[1] These patterns are mainly mnemonic which make Pateh a story teller just in the manner of carpet. It chants the songs of the dreamful women, their tales of tears and laughter, and their fancies of ornamenting their dowry as they needle the Pateh.[2]

History

[edit]

It is difficult to estimate the precise time to originate the background of Pateh. However, it is undoubtedly a handicraft arose in Kerman. As it is supposed that the first Pateh sketches were inspired by the carpet designs from Kerman, it could therefore be concluded that Pateh doesn't have a longer history than Carpet.[3]

The oldest Pateh discovered so far go back to the late 18th Century, a flowered needlework made from silk with paisley pattern. The manifestation of the Persian cypress and the sun Mitra were the primary symbolic signs revealed on Pateh. These symbols represent the pure Persian mindset of residence of Kerman in their adornment. [3]

There are numerous Pateh artworks kept in Art museums of Tehran. However, the most valuable masterpiece of Pateh could be claimed to be kept in "Astaneh" Museum of Mahan, dating back to 1294 Hijri, dedicated to the shrine of " Shah Nimatullah Wali " a dervish born in Kerman. It is 405cm x265cm wide, as a result of 3 years of nonstop work by 12 women under the order of governor "Shahab O'l molk". Nevertheless, it is said that by the early 20th century, the Pateh designs were so remarkably established that inspired the carpet designers.[3]

Pateh Structure

[edit]

The two essential parts of Pateh are "The Shawl" (or Ariz) and "The Thread". The Shawl is a thick fabric usually made of wool on which needlework is done. The thread consists of colorful wool strings. The strings are brought to Kerman in skeins ready to be naturally colored, usually by the use of henna, madder, pomegranate or the walnut's green husk.[3]

Pateh patterns are generally divided in two main groups of "The Paisley" and "The Tree". The most common pattern is usually made of four Paisleys on the corners with a "Toranj" at the center. The Paisley pattern could sometimes be substituted by a flower bouquet. The "Mihrab" design can also make an arch on the top of the Pateh. The margin is of the essential part in a design, usually filled with flowers and different kinds of paisley.[3]
