Needlework is one of the most common arts in the field of handicrafts among Iranian Baluch women. Baloch needlework motifs, although appearing in the form of regular geometric shapes on the fabric, are usually taken from the natural elements of the environment.

The variety, beauty and originality of these designs on the one hand and their considerable connection with nature and the surrounding environment on the other hand has caused the influence of these paintings from natural forms, make this art very beautiful and attractive.

Evidence shows that the art of Baloch needlework has existed among the Baloch since the beginning of Islam and the peak of this beautiful art was in the patriarchal period, especially the Timurid and Safavid periods.

The traditions of the Baloch people are rooted in this art and the identity of Baloch women can be found in this art.

However, it can be said that the work of Baloch embroidery, which is the same as silk flowers sewn on fabrics, has been related to the silk production industry for some time.
