Marble box – “Flower and Bird” – Code 1040022

During the Qajar period, especially in lacquer painting, illustration, and the creation of Gol-o-Morgh (flower-and-bird) motifs on various boxes, pen cases, and lacquered mirror frames, this art form was greatly promoted. It led to the production of exquisite and highly valuable works of art during that era.

In the realm of nature, the flower is a symbol of charm, delicacy, and purity. Wherever there is mention of elegance and grace, its emblem is the flower and its delightful fragrance. The scent of flowers refines the spirit, pleases the human soul, and the joy derived from their fragrance embodies the freshness of mortal life while evoking the eternal orchard and the spiritual paradise.
