The design of the present carpet is inspired by the naturalistic interpretations of flowers and plants used in the seventeenth century carpet designs of Mughal India. Here the weavers intended the silk flowers of the individual stems of poppies, lilies and carnations to shimmer as one walked passed and have been executed to the typical high standard associated with the workshops of Qum, which began weaving from 1930 (Jon Thompson, Carpet Magic, Cambridge, 1983, pp.6-7).
