About the Item
An antique Persian Mahal large room size carpet handmade during the early 20th century with the ancient Buddhist design, Chintamani (often spelled Cintamani), over a rust red field with a gray border.
The Chintamani design traces its origins back to Buddhism found as early as 1000 AD in the paintings at the Mogao Caves, it is thought to have been a depiction of three pearls. Thanks to the Silk Road, this design made its way westward into south and central Asia. The name Chintamani comes from Sanskrit, translating to ‘auspicious jewel,’ and was meant to bring good luck. The Chintamani motif found its place in the ottoman and Persian empires in a big way in the 15th and 16th centuries. It can be found across many mediums from this era such as jewelry, pottery, and textiles. It retained its connotation as a symbol of good luck, but by this point, its story had changed to suit the culture it served.
