In some versions, the figure of a bride with raised arms is woven into the design, symbolizing blessing, fertility, and protection.
The color palette of “Sun Bride” is bright and rich. Red dominates as a symbol of love, vitality, and energy; yellow and golden tones represent sunlight and warmth; and green stands for hope and new life.
