Persian Qum Silk
Stock No. SY-100-001362
Size(m): 1.50×1.02
At the heart of this extraordinary carpet, a vibrant red flower takes center stage, its ivory white centerpiece captivating our attention. This flower gracefully extends its petals into the field, creating a breathtaking depiction of plant life that feels almost larger than life. Emerging from the central medallion are nearly 20 protrusions, resembling limbs reaching into the expansive field of the carpet.
The spectacular aspect of this piece lies in the harmonious color scheme, where the rich hues of the central medallion perfectly match the darker tones of the outer guard borders and field borders. The luminescent base color of the field, an intense and extraordinary blue, is made possible by the use of silk, particularly the silk from the Qom region of Iran. It's believed that the water in this region imparts unique properties during the silk-washing process, resulting in a mesmerizing shimmer. Blue is a tranquil color designed to bring people a sense of inner peace. In many cultures, blue is also strongly associated with trust and loyalty.
The overall impression is that the field is alive, organic, and fluid, reminiscent of water. The carefully arranged flowers seem to float or dance about, contributing to the genius-like creation of immense beauty.
The central flower serves as a focal point, drawing our attention, and the philosophical and religious connotations of the journey to paradise come to mind. The rich cultural symbolism of paradise being depicted as a garden of flowers aligns seamlessly with the surreal blue field and the magnificent display of vegetation, creating a spiritual and otherworldly experience reminiscent of the Garden of Eden.
