Hand knotted in high-quality wool, the central royal blue medallion bears similarities to antique Mihrab designs, signifying the gateway to paradise, framed by a profound golden-orange outline and a series of tulips (possibly symbolizing the expectation of a son) against red and beige-green backgrounds. In the middle orange-gold border, a series of alternating cypress and branch motifs portray the tree of life, an iconic antique symbol of eternal life and renewal complementing the themes this rug embodies. less
