Turkish Persian Carpet

Egyptians … Lets play, especially for Rana, How do you know the origin of a carpet from the design waved,?

During the Islamic period in the region, (like Iraqi, Persian , Turkish, Egyptian),,,
Shalfat : Wherever I travel I can not find such sense of humor ,, my God ,,you made my evening,thnx

the Persians are Shi’a they can draw faces, humans, animal, birds. Exactly like in nature so you find paints like photos on their carpets,

The Sunni, in Egypt and Iraq, were moderate, they could not really imitate how things created by God look like, so their paints were for things from nature like animals, plants but after editing them not to be exactly the same like in real life

The Turkish were very strict Sunni, they did not use anything from nature so they used just geometric shapes and lines in the paint in fear they could taken as imitating God's creating

edit:thaaaaaanks a lot...that's sooo enlightening...i didnt know that before......
thank you zoser....

Today, the water pipe and the dazzling culture around it, is preparing to turn back to its magnificent old days. Day by day the culture which adds magic to the tobacco is attracting more and more interest. The name - water pipe- which is an important part of eastern culture, derives from the Persian word ‘nargil’ which means coconut. The first water pipe designs, which were named ‘?hi?a’ in Arabic and ‘Kalyan’ in Persian, were seen in India.

The first water pipe,which was made of the coconut’s outer layer by inserting a bamboo to the coconut, made room for the marrow squash while bringing a new dimension to the consumption of Indian hemp. After constantly gaining popularity, porcelain and silver body water pipes appeared, followed by the tile, silver plated and glass made water pipes. It first became widespread among the Persians and later among the Arabs.

Nowadays, hookah-smoking is a seemingly unbreakable social habit that, despite a vigorous anti-smoking lobby, is growing in popularity, especially among non-Arabs. In the Middle East, from Turkey to India, there are hookah cafes where people gather to smoke and drink coffee or tea..
