Reflecting Eight Gardens of Paradise,
An Elegant Silk Garden
Delicate flowers bloom across a clear sky-blue ground
in this handwoven 100% silk rug from Kashan.
Design
Kashan is a longstanding center of Persian rug weaving, appreciated for balanced compositions, delicate floral motifs and refined colors. Those qualities are beautifully expressed in this piece.
An ornate central medallion is surrounded by freely spreading vines and flowers, recalling a quiet palace courtyard garden woven in fine silk.
Eight Gardens of Paradise — The Story of an Octagon
The unusual octagonal form is particularly striking. In Persian architectural and cultural traditions, it can evoke harmony and the heavenly world, including Hasht Behesht, the “Eight Paradises.”
The design expands in eight directions from the center, suggesting beauty spreading throughout the room. This sense of symbolism gives the octagonal form a special narrative appeal.
Color and Light
A bright sky-blue field is framed by a warm brown border. Fine flowers in pink, ivory, blue, beige and burgundy create a colorful yet graceful palette.
Pure silk gives the rug a smooth touch and beautiful luster. The blue tones and shading of the flowers change softly with the angle and light, adding a refined glow.
The octagon is also considered an auspicious shape in Japan, making this rug a meaningful entrance accent. Flowers spreading in eight directions, a form recalling paradise and the elegant sheen of silk bring gentle color and a sense of joy to daily life.
Exceptionally fine knotting, a velvet-like surface and the lustrous sheen of silk give this Persian rug an opulent presence. Its craftsmanship can be appreciated as textile art. Silk pile changes markedly with the viewing direction; try turning the rug to enjoy the effect that best suits your room.
