It has a total two columns containing motifs which are cross-like shape, not the Christian cross, but the multiplication style cross, and at the center of those are flowers. The shape of these crosses are extraordinary because the predominant shape is as if it was a multiplication sign, but there is also a traditional religious shape cross. Clearly Persian carpets do not have the significance attached to such shapes that would apply in a Christian community.
The beauty is enormous because within the carpet are a magnificent arrangement of the most beautiful and subtle motifs and colors and shapes. The pattern itself is spellbinding. The repetition provides a calmness and a balance and harmony to the carpet.
The cultural significance of repeat patterns in a carpet, especially one with such intricate and carefully designed motifs, lies in the rich tradition of craftsmanship and artistry. In this case, the cross-like shapes and floral motifs create a visual language that transcends specific religious connotations, offering a universal aesthetic appeal.
The repetition of these patterns contributes to a sense of order, balance, and harmony within the carpet, enhancing its overall visual impact. The choice of colors, such as the soft pink in the guard borders and the dark backdrop in the field, adds depth and contrast, highlighting the beauty of the motifs.
The use of silk as the material further elevates the carpet, providing strength, vibrant color retention, and a luxurious texture. Beyond its physical attributes, the carpet becomes a focal point in a room, not just for its aesthetic beauty but also for the cultural and artistic value it represents. Its presence can enhance the ambiance, offering a touch of sophistication and timeless elegance to any space.
That harmony and softness and balance is extended by the base color of the main guard border, which is a pink color, and that is also the color that appears in the outer guard border, which is a solid pink color. The base color of the field of the carpet is a very dark color, and that serves as a wonderful highlight backdrop color to the motifs that appear in the field. The impact of this carpet is enormous. It is made of silk, and silk is a wonderful material to construct such a carpet with. It has enormous strength. It also holds colors brilliantly. Whilst this carpet is not particularly large in size, it would be a wonderful accent point in any room requiring the combination of these colors and the spectacular beauty of such a carpet.
