Rainbow Medallion (Ranginkaman) by Jafari Jamshidi Workshop

This piece is from the Jafari Jamshidi workshop, known for its original sense of color among the prestigious Jamshidi family of Qom silk. "Ranginkaman" means "rainbow" in Persian. Ribbons of yellow, pink, light blue, purple, red, and green ripple outwards in concentric circles from the central medallion, like a slow-motion display of colors. The four corners feature small palaces, miniature-style animals (horses, deer), and floral cartouches, while the top and bottom borders are lined with small, castle-like buildings. This piece combines a classical medallion composition with the fantastical nature of modern art.

Miniature Detail and Luster Unique to Silk

This piece is crafted from 100% fine silk threads, with an extremely dense weave. This allows for the precise distinction of overlapping colors in the rainbow ribbons, the outlines of the small animals in the four corners, and even each window, arch, and single flower in the palace and floral cartouches on the borders. The light blue background gains luster with the angle of the light, and the rainbow ribbons shimmer and float, creating an expression unique to silk. This is a piece to be enjoyed by looking closely, as new discoveries abound the more you observe it.
