Balochi Sofreh
Balochi Sofreh
This Balochi Sofreh(dining cloth), dating back to the 1970s, is a square textile with a rich heritage. Traditionally, it served a dual purpose in nomadic life: safeguarding the floor from stray flour during bread preparation and preserving freshly baked loaves by wrapping them. It is affectionately known as the "Sofreh Naan" or "Sofreh Ardi”. Beyond its culinary role, this versatile textile can also transform into a charming carpet or an eye-catching wall hanging, inviting you to embrace its heritage and functionality in your daily life. The sofreh shows signs of use due to its vintage nature, with some areas displaying signs of wear.
