Haft-Seen

Haft-Seen is an important tradition in Iranian New Year (Nowruz) celebrations, featuring a table set with seven symbolic items starting with the Persian letter "S." Each item embodies a theme of renewal, health, prosperity, or beauty—such as apples (Sib), garlic (Seer), and vinegar (Serkeh). These items reflect hope for the coming year and are arranged thoughtfully to honor nature, life, and growth. The Haft-Seen table provides a visual focus for reflection and celebration, blending cultural symbolism with family and community gathering during the arrival of spring.
