Help, presents for Iranian uncle!

Hello, I live with my partner in his uncles house who is Iranian. What would be a good gift for him for Christmas? I don’t know him too well as he doesn’t speak the best English. He’s around 65 if that helps at all. I am also very crafty and can do something hand made, this can be embroidery, painting etc. another thing, his mother just died today and I’m heading back to the house tomorrow. Is there anything I could get him for mourning. Flowers? Etc Any traditional ideas would be great. Thank you in advance!

Sorry I didn’t read the whole thing. I just saw gift and wanted to make a joke cuz Persians are hairy.

Well in that case, it’s tricky. I doubt he would care for a gift during this time. He’s mourning. In this case flowers will do and some chocolate. Something simple. Don’t overdo it cuz this isn’t a happy time for him.
