Seneh Gol O Bolbol Rug, 1940s

Spring awakening
Both the flower (Gol) and the nightingale (Bolbol) are important motifs in Middle Eastern literature and especially in the visual language of Middle Eastern poetry. The rose alone served as a literary metaphor for perfection and beauty and was able to represent the (secular or spiritual) lover or the prince, while the sweet singing nightingale could represent lovers or the poet. The flowers and nightingale are together the types of the lover and the lover par excellence; The flowers are beautiful, proud and often cruel (flowers can sometimes have thorns), while the nightingale constantly sings about their longing and devotion.

In addition to its attractive appearance, this Seneh city rug has certain characteristics that are of particular interest to the collector. The most important thing is to realize that all colors, of course, seem to be of vegetable origin.
This Seneh Gol O Bolbol rug is made of cotton hand -made from cotton tub. Very fine and dense link with approx. 500,000 knots / m².
