This piece came off a loom in an imperial workshop.

In Ottoman hands it became three discs, a ring inside a ring with three dots at the centre, and two wavy bands beneath. It turns up so often in Ottoman art that Cleveland's own record calls it a favoured motif and possibly an unofficial imperial emblem. Possibly, because no sultan ever decreed it. It was never law. The court simply kept choosing it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen the cloth came apart. What survives are fragments in two American cities — one in Cleveland, one in New York, the Met's piece twenty-eight inches by eleven and a half.

Four thousand miles from Bursa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe velvet was cut down and the empire is gone.

In Buddhist art it sits as three flaming pearls in the headdress of a bodhisattva. By 1383 it is on coins struck at Samarkand — Timur had taken the three circles for his own badge, and what had been a jewel was now the mark of a conqueror. It kept moving. By the later fifteenth century it is in nearly every medium of Ottoman art, and it has changed species: Ottoman sources call it \u003cem\u003ebenekli\u003c\/em\u003e, spotted, and \u003cem\u003epelengi\u003c\/em\u003e, leopard-like. Walter Denny writes that the form gathered, alongside good luck and the warding off of evil spirits, a distinctly masculine aura — probably from the leopard-skin helmet and tiger-skin coat worn by Rustam, the hero of the Persian epic. The drawing never changed. The meaning kept turning into power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen it was woven into this. A full loom width of silk velvet, twenty-nine and a half inches with a selvedge on both edges, the pile dyed dark purple-red with expensive insect dye, the pattern brocaded in ivory silk wrapped with thin strips of silver. Probably cut from the back of a garment. Someone wore this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat did not last. The silver tarnished to dark grey, so what hangs in Gallery 459 is darker than what came off the loom. The bolt was cut apart and sold in pieces — others are at the Textile Museum in Washington and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. This piece reached Dikran Kelekian, a dealer in New York, who sold it to The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1908.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe silver went dark and the bolt came apart. The shape did neither. It has been moving for a thousand years and it has never once depended on the cloth it was carried on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin-top:1.2em;\"\u003eThe Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSource:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fragmentary Silk Velvet with Repeating Tiger-stripe and 'Chintamani' Design, second half 15th century, Bursa, Turkey.
