The most important stage, and that which contributed the most to the artistic value of the carpet, the scissors work, was begun in November 1979 and completed in January 1986.
[2] The following is a description of the design of Boostan, as cited in The Dream of Paradise: Intermittent and sinuous scrolls of Band islimi motifs are elaborately employed to outline the [eight-point] medallion that glitters in the centre of the carpet.
Having been illuminated in different hues and motifs, the wide and narrow borders stand out in contrast, in spite of the fact that they are drawn with no separating lines.
"[4] Boostan was presented to and enjoyed a four-day presence in the Islamic Consultative Assembly (Iranian Parliament), as well as having been exhibited in many different countries, including Japan, Germany, Qatar, Kuwait, and France.
[4] Boostan has been revered by many leading figures in Iran, including Ayatollah Khamenei (Supreme Leader), former President Khatami, and Dr. Hossein Elahi Ghomshei.
