CINTAMANI FRENCH LINEN BOARD SHORT LIMITED EDITION of 100
The Chintamani, a Sanskrit term for a wish-fulfilling gem, holds a significant place in various cultures and artistic expressions throughout history. The cintamani design, featuring three balls above wavy lines, is a popular motif found in Hindu and Buddhist art, commonly seen on Indian and Tibetan rugs. The lines resemblance to tiger stripes add to its visual allure.
FURTHER READING
Originally symbolizing the power of royalty, the cintamani design gradually found its way onto Ottoman carpets during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, showcasing its adaptability and widespread appeal.
In Buddhism, the three circles grouped in a triangle represent the Buddhist trinity of Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha, signifying essential states of existence.
The notion of three sacred treasures is found across various civilizations, often believed to be divine gifts. Japan’s Three Sacred Treasures encompass the sword Kusanagi, the mirror Yata no Kagami, and the jewel Yasakani no Magatama. Each treasure embodies a primary virtue: valor, wisdom, and benevolence, respectively.
The Egyptian hieroglyphic symbol for the star Sirius bears a striking resemblance to these three objects, featuring an obelisk, a half circle, and a star. Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, disappears for seventy days each year before reappearing just prior to the summer solstice and the annual flooding of the Nile. This celestial event held immense importance to the Ancient Egyptians, who revered Sirius as the goddess of fertility.
The cintamani design also found its way into the art and textiles of various civilizations, including the Etruscans, Romans, Greeks, and Mesoamericans. Its simplicity and association with the auspicious number three evoke a calming effect, capturing our collective imagination as a symbolic representation of a universal truth that resonates across cultures and epochs.
