In Persian carpet symbolism, the depiction of flowers holds significant cultural and artistic meaning. Here are some key aspects of the symbolism of flowers in Persian carpets:

The intricate designs and vibrant colors of floral motifs contribute to the aesthetic appeal of the carpet, creating a visually stunning work of art.
2. Symbolism of Life and Renewal: Flowers symbolize life, growth, and renewal in Persian culture. The depiction of blooming flowers in Persian carpets reflects the cyclical nature of life and the eternal renewal of nature. This symbolism is deeply rooted in Persian literature, poetry, and art, where flowers are often used as metaphors for the passage of time and the impermanence of existence.
3. Cultural and Religious Significance: In Persian culture, certain flowers hold specific cultural and religious significance. For example, the rose is revered as the "queen of flowers" in Persian poetry and symbolizes love, beauty, and spiritual enlightenment. The tulip, another popular motif in Persian carpets, is associated with prosperity, abundance, and divine grace.
4. Regional Variations: Different regions of Iran have their own unique floral motifs and designs, reflecting local flora and cultural traditions. For example, carpets from the city of Isfahan may feature delicate floral patterns inspired by the lush gardens and parks of the region, while carpets from Tabriz may incorporate bold and geometric floral motifs influenced by the city's rich artistic heritage.

For a classic living layout, place the rug in the centre of the room and place the front legs of your sofa and armchairs on the rug. This will help create a better aesthetic and cleaner appearance.
For those who don’t want a large rug but still want a warm underfoot when getting out of bed, we recommend a round or runner rug to place at either side of the bed.
For high traffic, spill-risk areas like the dining area, we recommend a low-pile rug and easy-to-clean material like polypropylene for a rug.
