Indian cucumber, Turkish cucumber, Turkish bean, Persian pickle, buta, paisley - all these are names of the classic pattern known to us from childhood.
The shape of the “Turkish cucumber” resembles a sprouted bean.
In India, they believe that this is one of the symbols of movement, development and energy. This is a benevolent sign. Symbolizing productive nature, it is no coincidence that the cucumber ornament adorns the wedding dress of an Indian bride.
