DÉFINITION
  • The word tiraz is derived from the Persian word for embroidery and can refer to the textiles themselves, to the bands of inscription that were embroidered onto them, or to the factories in which they were produced. The earliest examples of tiraz, however, were uninscribed and decorated with colorful medallions, animals, or other motifs marking a gradual transition from Sasanian, Coptic, and Byzantinetraditions (1974.113.4). Later tiraz with similar attributes demonstrate a revival of these styles in eleventh- and twelfth-century Fatimid Egypt (27.170.67). Tiraz vary widely in materials and appearance depending on when, where, and for whom they were produced. Most were made of linen, wool, cotton, or a fabric called mulham that was composed of a silk warp and cotton or other weft
