Elegant veramine in zaronim format featuring the traditional 'Zil il sultan' pattern on a navy blue background. This pattern is composed of roses (göl farang*) in a vase surrounded by two birds. The main border uses the 'göl-e-bobol' motif which can be translated as 'the rose and the nightingale'.

'göl farang' pattern: The influence comes from the Damascus rose whose rose pattern inspired Safavid carpets, which in turn influenced European tapestries. At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, this motif was found in the Orient on carpets and kilims from Karabakh (Caucasus), on certain Iranian carpets such as bidjars and sennehs, as well as on Moldovan kilims from the Balkans.
