Paired Buta

This pendant draws inspiration from one of the variations of the renowned buta motif, known as the govushmush buta (paired buta). Buta is an ancient and cherished oriental motif, with its name likely derived from the Persian word “boteh,” meaning a shrub resembling a thistle.

Buta showcases a captivating example of how a single concept can be interpreted diversely across cultures. Its meanings range from a pine cone and palm crown to a flame, each holding religious significance as symbols of immanence and eternal life.
