Garrous Rugs

Garrous is the historical name for the Bijar region in Iranian Kurdistan, and Garrous rugs are among the finest expressions of Kurdish weaving in the world. Woven by Kurdish tribes in the mountainous highlands around Bijar, these rugs share the legendary iron-like density that makes Bijar carpets famous—but the name "Garrous" emphasizes the regional identity and the specific Kurdish tribal character behind that tradition.

The predominant design is the Garrous pattern itself: a lozenge-shaped central medallion filled with repeating sub-motifs on a contrasting ground. Lustrous wool from local Kurdish flocks, naturally dyed in a harmonious palette, creates a surface that ages magnificently. Larger Garrous pieces have a presence that feels authoritative and grounded.

If you want the full depth of Kurdish-Persian weaving heritage in a rug that will outlast every other textile in your home, Garrous is the name to know.
