The Sassanid era is one of the most important periods in Iranian history, with remarkable works of art from this period. The decorative elements in the artworks of this period indicate the connection of beliefs and beliefs in human thought. The book “Investigation of Sassanid Steel Utensils from a Symbolic Viewpoint” was published by Neda Akhavan Aghdam in 1396 in the Academy of Art Publications. Besides the lack of a coherent order for the analysis of motifs, this book has also some form and content shortcomings. The present study, based on the library method, has critically criticized the book and evaluated its form and scientific content. In this regard, the deficiencies and critical comments of each of the topics are expressed below. Referring to the shortcomings aims to understand the concepts and to explain the symbolic aspects of motifs in Sasanian metal containers which are the results of this paper.

It is difficult to speak and theoretically analyze the handicrafts, although it may sound easy. Crafts are a familiar and tangible thing in everyday life, so it would be obvious without any need to know and try to understand them. The book “Introduction to Iranian Crafts Workshops” was compiled by Fariba Mostafavi in Mehr Nowruz Publications in 2016. Although the book is generally a collection of invaluable high-quality illustrations to introduce to some handicraft workshops, like any scholarly work, it has some formative and content deficiencies that have been attempted to criticize it critically. This research has explained the relevance of the library to some non-scientific propositions that mislead the reader (artists) and move from one research to another. In this regard, the following shortcomings and critical comments will be expressed in each of the following issues.
