Parrot Persian Symbols Pendant Dangle Charm

The parrot is a symbol often found on traditional Persian rugs. The symbolism of parrots, like other talking birds (ravens and toucans), was influenced by their ability to speak. Due to the possession of the skill of human speech in world mythology, parrots often serve as messengers, intermediaries between gods and people. In Persia, the parrot meant protection and the ability to hide from danger. It was also the parrot that was looking for the source of immortality in Persian mythology.
