A pictorial silk rug showing a great eagle swooping down onto a mountain ridge with a young deer in its talons. Its wide wings fill the upper half of the picture against a pale turquoise sky with drifting white clouds, every feather drawn in shades of gold, grey and sage. Below, warm amber mountains fall away in ridges and gullies, with small tufts of desert grass. A cream border of small flowers and leaves, between fine guard stripes, frames the scene, with a red outer band and silk fringe at both ends. A Persian inscription is woven into the top band.

Hand-knotted in silk in Qum. The fine knotting lets the feathers and rock lines read clearly, and the silk makes the sky and mountains glow. At 75×107cm this is a small piece, made to hang on a wall or lie beside a bed.

100% silk pile, hand-knotted in Qum, with silk fringe at both ends. Silk is strong in tension but delicate in every other respect: it abrades, it marks with water, and it loses lustre permanently if treated like wool.

The pale turquoise sky is the part to protect, as it shows marks and fading first. Pictorial silks like this are usually hung on a wall, where the whole scene can be seen and the silk is safe from feet.

Qum's silk workshops are known not only for classical medallions but also for pictorial rugs, woven like paintings. This one shows a single dramatic moment: a great eagle swooping down onto a mountain ridge with a young deer gripped in its talons. Its wide wings fill the upper half of the picture against a pale turquoise sky with drifting white clouds, and every feather is drawn in shades of gold, grey and sage. Below, warm amber mountains fall away in ridges and gullies, dotted with small tufts of desert grass, so the eye moves from the bird down into the landscape. A cream border of small flowers and leaves, between fine guard stripes, frames the scene, with a red outer band and a Persian inscription woven into the top. The silk makes the sky and the mountains glow as the light moves. A piece like this is made to be looked at, hung on a wall or laid where it can be seen in full.
