About the Item

Tree of life rugs, also known as tree rugs earn distinction as a representation of one of the most timeless religious symbols of human life, its use preceding Christianity and Islam. Ancient cultures throughout Europe and Asia view the tree of life as a link between man and heaven. Often, in Oriental rug producing areas, Tree of Life rugs are produced as prayer rugs. In Islam, the Tree of Life remains an important metaphor for the pathway between Heaven, Earth, and the underworld of Hell. Persian Tree of Life Rugs, like other rugs from the Middle Eastern regions, are known for their use of reds and blues, and elaborate depiction of animals surrounding a bountiful tree which springs forth from a vase. This rug is 11’2” x 16’8”.
