Bidjar Iran Rug 177 X 135 Cm

Carpet from Iranian Kurdistan (western Iran), Kurk wool (fine lamb's wool), cotton warp and weft, circa 1890. Despite its age, the carpet is in very good condition and the colors have not faded. The carpet has been expertly restored by a master weaver who has rewoven the fringes on one side. Rare.

Bidjar carpets are highly valued for their great durability and resistance to wear. These rugs are prized by enthusiasts for their authenticity and typically Persian charm.
Rugs from Bidjar and the surrounding villages are made using the Turkbaff knot (double knot). A traditional Bidjar has 3 to 5 rows of warp threads. Furthermore, the quality of the wool and the weaving technique make these rugs virtually indestructible. They are sometimes called 'iron rugs'.

This splendid Bidjar features a floral motif that is both classic and timeless. Against a navy blue background, the motifs are harmoniously blended in a palette of matching colors. Traditional borders frame this design. A strong and durable rug, thick yet supple.
