The design of the first panel is very similar to that of both embroideries and carpets attributed to the Caucasus, which was in the 17th and 18th century a part of the Safavid realm. A similar panel is in the Textile Museum, Washington (Carol Bier (ed.), Woven from the Soul, Spun from the Heart, exhibition catalogue, Washington D.C., 1987, no.84, p.286).
