MEANING OF DESIGNS
The work of making tapestries is an act of worship. Every design represents an allegory with a long-standing historical significance. Zoroastrianism, probably the world?s oldest monotheistic religion, is the basis of most of the traditional Persian designs. The process of creation, the harmony and rhythms of world, and respect for nature and social diversity are all ubiquitous. Some of the most pervasive examples are as follows.
1. The process of culling the raw materials from the earth and mixing them together represents the natural elements coming together, bringing the artist closer to god by imitating the original creation.
2. The number 4 represents both the seasons and the classical elements of nature: earth, water, air and fire, with love in the center, represented by the medallion of god.
3. The Zoroastrian god, Mazda, holds in his hands the ring of intellect which elevates the status of humanity above the animals and unites us with him. He flies with wings having three layers of feathers, representing good thoughts, good deeds and good speech, with his tail-feathers representing the negative counterparts.
4. The paisley combines three symbols: a womb, a child in the arm of her mother, and the peacock feather in the crown of the emperor. Thus, the paisley represents both nurturing and authority, primary qualities of divinity.
