    The document discusses the origins and symbolism of the chintamani motif found on Turko-Iranian and Indian textiles and carpets. The motif consists of three small dark spheres in a triangular pattern. It originated in Persia in the 16th century and later spread to Ottoman textiles and carpets where it symbolized power and high social rank. The document explores connections between the motif and depictions of leopard and tiger pelts, which were attributes of rulers, warriors, and ascetics in those regions. It notes debate around the earliest dates that the chintamani motif appeared on Anatolian carpets.

    Abstract: The study of the origin of the chintamani motif highlighted some connections with the spots
    on the leopard fur and with Timur Lenk’s emblem and property sign (tamgha), depicted on his coins
    issued in Samarkand in 1383 and mentioned by a Castilian ambassador. Generally symbolising the
    destructive power, but also the destructive passions caused by the instinctual impulses, which a wise
    man should be able to controle, the leopard pelt is a traditional attribute of Ottoman, Persian and
    Central Asian rulers, but also of Muslim and Hindu warriors and of the ascetics, either of the Muslim
    ones or (as Shiva’s garb) of the Hindu yogis. In the Ottoman Empire, Persia and Central Asia the
    tiger pelt is less frequently depicted, usually in connection with the specific garb of Rostam, a hero of
    Ferdowsi’s work “Shahnama”. Obviously inspired by some images of this garb, the Ottoman
    designers combined the appearance of the two felines’ pelts, creating thus a new symbol of the
    Sultan’s power. In India the tiger pelt is an attribute of the warriors and hunters, but also of the most
    famous Hindu and of the Buddhist ascetics and even (but less frequently) of the Muslim ones. Already
    in early 17th century, but more often since late 18th c., in the Indian painting there is a deviation from
    the previous iconographic canons and often the tiger pelt and the leopard one (which both are
    attributes of Shiva) may replace each other. In India the chintamani motif occurs not only on textiles
    depicted in late 16th c.–early 18th c. paintings, but also as a hallmark on 18th c. sabre blades produced
    in Hyderabad, symbolising most likely the Nizam’s authority.

    Rezumat: Studiul originii motivului chintamani evidenаiază unele legături atât cu aspectul specific al
    blănii de leopard, cât Юi cu emblema lui Timur Lenk Юi semnul său de proprietate (tamgha),
    reprezentată pe monedele emise de el la Samarkand în 1383 Юi atestată Юi de afirmaаiile unui
    ambasador castilian. Simbolizând în general puterea distructivă, dar Юi patimile distructive
    princinuite de pornirile instinctuale, pe care un om înаelept ar trebui să fie capabil de a le stăpâni,
    blana de leopard este un atribut tradiаional al conducătorilor otomani, persani Юi central-asiatici, dar
    Юi al războinicilor musulmani Юi hinduЮi Юi al asceаilor, fie al celor musulmani, fie (ca veЮmânt al lui
    Shiva) al yoghinilor hinduЮi. În Imperiul Otoman, în Persia Юi în Asia Centrală blana de tigru este
    mai puаin frecvent reprezentată, de obicei în legătură cu veЮmântul specific al lui Rostam, un erou al
    lucrării “Shahnama” de Ferdowsi. Evident inspiraаi de unele imagini ale acestui veЮmânt, designerii
    otomani au combinat aspectul blănurilor celor două feline, creând astfel un nou simbol al puterii
    sultanului. În India blana de tigru este un atribut al războinicilor Юi vânătorilor, dar Юi al celor mai
    vestiаi asceаi hinduЮi Юi buddhiЮti, Юi chiar (dar mai puаin frecvent) al celor musulmani. Deja la
    începutul sec. XVII, dar mai ales începând cu sfârЮitul sec. XVIII, în pictura indiană se constată o
    abatere de la canoanele iconografice, pielea de tigru putând lua adesea lua locul celei de leopard sau
    viceversa (ambele fiind atribute ale lui Shiva). În India motivul chintamani este întâlnit nu numai pe
    textile reprezentate în picturi la sfârЮitul sec. XVI–începutul sec. XVIII, ci Юi ca marcaj de atelier, pe
    lame de săbii produse în sec. XVIII la Hyderabad, ca simbol al autorităаii nizamului.
    Cuvinte cheie: chintamani, pictură orientală Юi europeană, covoare orientale, lame indiene de sabie,
    leopard, tigru
