Mir Mehedi Studio Eight Paradises Dome Design Dark Blue x Mocha 144x219cm (ID22003)

When placed in front of a sofa, a large concentric dome emerges from a deep navy background, with rose medallions circling within it in layers. A small octagonal star is at the center, and the outer edge is bordered with a mocha color. It's a profound and three-dimensional scene, like looking up at the dome of a mosque.

Hasht Behesht (Eight Heavens) by Mil Mehdi Workshop

This is a work by the Mil Mehdi workshop, which excels in the geometric composition of dome patterns (Gombadi) among Qom-produced silks. Adopting the Hasht Behesht composition, meaning "Eight Heavens" in Persian, it expands from a central octagonal star, connecting rose patterns in rhomboid panels. This piece unfolds on the carpet a view of an ancient Persian architectural dome ceiling as seen directly from above.

The Intricacy and Luster Unique to Silk

Because it's 100% fine silk thread, you can discern every rose in each rhomboid panel, the small border of the octagonal star, the fine lattice pattern of the border, and even the arch decoration in the corners. The deep navy recedes deeply with the angle of the light, and the warm colors of the rose pink and mocha emerge—an expression unique to silk.

How to Incorporate into Your Life

At 144x219cm, it's the perfect size for a center rug in front of a three-seater sofa, a focal point in a reception room, or under a dining table. The combination of deep navy and mocha is easy to match with white walls or wooden floors, adding dignity and warmth to the space.

This is a one-of-a-kind item selected by the owner at a workshop in Qom. It is a piece that took a long time to create, and you can confirm the actual luster, the intricacy of the geometric composition, and the shades of the roses in the video. Golestan Persian Carpet Specialty Store.
