Abstract: (2434 Views)
The use of jewelry and ornaments has always been one of the most important manifestations of the glory and grandeur of kings and courtiers in the imperial governments of Iran. One of the imperial dynasties in which the use of jewelry had a special place was the Qajar dynasty. In this era, due to socio-political interactions, very magnificent and expensive jewelry was made and exchanged between governments. Thus, throughout the imperial history, vast treasures of jewelry have been collected, each of which is kept locally. Meanwhile, the national jewelry treasure is one of the most comprehensive collections of expensive jewelry in history. Geometric patterns used include circles, ellipses, rectangles, triangles and polygons. Common plant motifs also include three-feathered, four-feathered, five-feathered, eight-feathered flowers, leaves, roses, sunflowers, and so on. Animal motifs such as birds, lions and dragonflies can also be seen in a number of specimens. Shamseh is another pattern that has been used in the center of most samples. Other motifs include inscription motifs that were observed in a number of embossments. In the study of the visual features of the Qajar royal palaces, the mentioned treasure can be seen as a visual element of balance, symmetry, strength and stagnation. The structure of the jackets and the decorative motifs are coordinated so that the motifs are organized and decorated according to the general form of the specimens. The most important aspect in beautifying these pavilions is the use of expensive jewelry such as diamonds, emeralds, diamonds, rubies, as well as the use of gold and silver metals.
