“Boteh,” the Persian term commonly associated with the paisley motif, is one of the most recognizable designs in rug and textile art. Shaped like a teardrop or pear, it appears in countless variations—ranging from richly detailed, ornate forms to simplified, geometric interpretations. The motif is easy to identify by its curved, tapering silhouette, often enhanced with an arched spray of flowers, a detail many link to the idea of a paradise garden. Over time, scholars and collectors have suggested many symbolic meanings for boteh, including fertility, pinecones, a cypress tree, a leaf, a flame, and other life-themed interpretations.
