Inspired by Yalda, an ancient Persian celebration of the longest night of the year, when families gather to share stories, poetry and welcome the return of light.
The pomegranate, with its ruby-red seeds, is one of the most cherished symbols of Yalda, representing life, abundance and renewal.
For this piece, I combined delicate embroidery with shimmering beads to recreate the jewel-like seeds of this beautiful fruit, carrying a little piece of this ancient tradition into every stitch.
