| یادداشتها | Major R. Murdoch Smith discusses the Iranian town of Abadeh (between Isfahan and Shiraz) as being the main centre of Persian wood carving during the period of 1800-1900. This town was famous for its elaborately carved spoons (qashuq) and small boxes, all made of either pear or lime wood, and carved with a common pocket-knife. |

The top of the crutch is carved into a âvâ shape with a single paisley flower on either side carved in open work patterning, with stylised birds beneath painted with red and green. |
