You are invited to meet key voices in Iranian craft today.

At Garland magazine, we have shared many inspiring stories from Iran. These can be found in our Persian garden:

2. How do artists and craftspersons relate to the rich layers of Iranian decorative arts?
3. What are the main spaces and organisations in the scene?
4. How do Iranians cope with the financial and political sanctions imposed by the West?
5. What is the Iranian word for craft?
