The Story

A house, a lineage

When our founder, Hediya, was growing up, her fondest memories were of sharing Persian tea with her grandmother. Every afternoon, her mother brewed a fresh pot, filling their home with the fragrance of cardamom and rose. They’d sit at the kitchen table—three generations of women—sharing family stories and reciting poetry. Those rituals led to the founding of the House of Leyli. 

Today, we source with intention and handcraft with care, each offering chosen the way you choose something you love—through guided tea rituals, meditative gatherings, and seasonal collections that invite moments of presence, beauty, and belonging inspired by Persian culture.

In all of it, we are invested in love because we believe it is the path home, to ourselves and to each other.

“Hediya calls us back to the present moment, opening space for us to feel deeply, to ponder, to release. Her session left me hopeful, enlightened, peaceful and somehow invigorated."

— Former participant

"I have been to thousands of mindfulness workshops, and I have never experienced something so powerful, so sensory-rich, and so soul-enlivening. I left feeling revived, refreshed, and grateful."

— Yael Shy, Meditation Teacher & Award-winning author

"Hediya’s tea meditations were calming, intentional, and genuinely moving—people still talk about them. Her care for every detail creates an experience that lingers long after the cup is empty."

— Faye, Senior Specialist at Bain & Company

TEA CULTURE

The ritual of Persian tea meditation

The ritual of brewing tea in Iranian homes is one of profound attention — water temperature, steep time, the weight of the glass. A meditation hiding in plain sight.

SLOW LIVING

On slowing down: what tea taught me

Most of my writing talks about persistence. Keep going. Be patient. But there is a quieter lesson — the one I learned the first time I sat with a proper brew.
