In designs which a pattern is repeated all over the rug in both longitudinal and transverse directions, is called repetitive (Vagireh) design. As it can be seen motif of Flower and Nightingale is repeated throughout the rug which includes bunches of flower branches with birds around or on them. One of the most beautiful romantic and mystical mutuality among Iranian artists and writers is the mutuality between a flower and a nightingale, in which the flower is depicted as the beloved and the bird as the lover. This design is one of the art works of Master Ali Rashtizadeh, the founder of the Qom silk rug, and is deemed to one of the museum's unique art works. This art work was devoted to Farhangestan Art Museum by Master Ali Rashtizadeh in the first gathering of the forgotten treasures of Iranian art in 2007.
