Cultural Symbolism in Persian and Turkish Carpet Bag Designs

Cultural Symbolism in Persian and Turkish Carpet Bag Designs

Greetings from Authentic Craft Works. We don’t just sell beautiful, handmade carpet bags, but connect you to rich cultural heritage. This blog takes a deeper look into the enriching world of Persian and Turkish carpet bag designs, exploring the symbolism and meaning behind such beauty.

As a brand that believes in quality, craftsmanship, and personalized products, we are proud to introduce this knowledge to you. Our skilled team of artisans takes pride in crafting every piece by hand using materials that hold esteem for traditional Persian and Turkish designs, which exude timeless elegance and sophistication.

Designs of Persian Carpet Bags: A Legacy of Royalty

The design of the Persian carpet bag has a rich history traced back several centuries to the royal courts of ancient Persia, modern-day Iran. These bags were designed for the royalties and the nobility, carrying very intricate patterns and motifs that symbolized one’s wealth, status, and power.

Beauty, pride, and resilience are some of the traditional motifs carried across in the bag designs of Persian carpets by the peacock. The varicolored plumage is said to represent the soul, and hence the peacock is an appealing design both on high-quality Persian carpets and bags.

Another classic theme is the Persian Lion, symbolizing bravery and strength. This king of beasts was depicted in royal hunting scenes where it embodied the heritage of power and grandeur.

The flowers used in the designs of Persian carpet bags are also fully representative of symbolism. Roses, for example, represent love, passion, and devotion. These small flowers were often integrated into intricate patterns that symbolized the beauty of nature and further signified the fragility of life.

These are the same timeless inspirations from which we draw our ideas at Authentic Craft Works to bring timeless elegance into the creation of our carpet bag. Each piece is a labor of love, carefully stitched with attention to detail using only the finest materials to reflect the richness of Persian culture.

Turkish Carpet Bag Designs: A Mix of East Meets West

The design of the Turkish carpet bag follows an interesting blend of Eastern and Western influences, since this country had long been a bridge connecting Europe and Asia. Turkish carpets and bags have always been valued for their stunning colors, intricate patterns, and majestic motifs.

Among the most symbolic themes of the Turkish motifs are the Oriental Tree, symbolizing longevity and prosperity in its wisdom. The majestic tree was mostly represented in ancient Turkish art, as it reflected the status accorded to this reverenced figure in nature.

Another popular motif is that of the Kite, which symbolizes bravery, agility, and quick thinking. Its design element of flight has been reproduced on many Turkish carpet bag designs to date to indicate flight and the wind beneath the wings.

The intricate geometric patterns, mostly coming from but not confined to the myriad traditional motifs, down to the Mösyë-stylized representation of the ancient Mesopotamian bull goddess Inanna, are representative of the harmony and balance which underlies all aspects of life. These are woven into the design of Turkish carpet bags.

At Authentic Craft Works, we can’t look away from vibrant colours and majestic motifs in Turkish carpet bag design. Every item is highly detailed, made of only the highest-quality materials that reflect the rich cultural heritage of Turkey.
