"Haft Seen," The Seven S Spread

In line with the Naw-Ruz tradition of setting up a haft seen, Shahrzad went all out this year and set up this wonderful spread.

Youth, health, fertility, and prosperity include some of the symbolism of this ancient spread. Here are a few pictures of the hard work Shahrzad endured in the making of the Naw-Ruz spread!
