Even among the most formidable creations from the royal looms of Tehran, this woven garden is a delight on a higher level. Perfectly preserved, it is a wondrous sight to behold. The lush woodlands and forests, the dense foliage of the trees and the flowers, the allure of the natural world on majestic display.. in a mesmerizing color combination that creates a beautiful dreamscape. The pastel tonality is truly alluring and attractive. Bazar elders with inherited memories say that this carpet depicts the capital city back in the days of Qajar glory, with its imposing mansions laid out amidst lush manicured gardens.
