About This Bidjar
Where it comes from
Bijar runners are rare — the type is usually woven as room-size carpets — which makes this one, at 347 x 86 cm (11'5" x 2'10"), worth pausing on. Bijar comes from the Kurdish regions of western Iran and has earned the name "the Iron Rugs of Persia" for a construction so dense the finished rug cannot be folded, only rolled. This piece carries that same weight and structure into a long, narrow format built for a passage rather than a room.
What you see
The field is a deep navy, close to indigo, filled edge to edge with fine Mahi scrollwork in muted green, grey-blue and rust. Down its length march four hexagonal medallions in ivory, identical in size and colour, spaced with the same interval, so the eye moves along the runner in a steady rhythm rather than settling on one centre. A wide brick-red border, patterned with the same Mahi scrollwork and edged by a slim black guard stripe, holds the whole design firmly in place and takes up close to a fifth of the width.
How it was made
That rhythm is only possible because of how tightly this rug is knotted. At 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre, this sits among the densest weaving in the Persian tradition, and it is what lets four medallions of identical size and colour repeat cleanly rather than drift, as looser weaves tend to. A cotton warp gives the structure its backbone, while the wool pile is worked through with silk, which spins far finer than wool and lets the weaver sharpen the outline of each hexagon and each scrolling vine. At 15 mm the pile stays low and firm rather than soft and deep, which is exactly what gives the surface its crisp, matte definition.
At home
At under a metre wide, this is a hallway or landing piece, and the navy ground will hold its own against dark floorboards while the ivory medallions catch what daylight there is and carry it along the corridor in sequence. Underfoot it is dense and firm, built for the kind of daily traffic a hallway gets rather than a room to be protected. It is, in the end, exactly what its name promises — a rug meant to be walked on for decades, its rhythm intact each time you pass along it.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 347 × 86 cm (2.98 m²) this is a runner. It belongs in a hallway, an entrance, on a landing or lengthways beside a bed. It is too narrow for the middle of a room.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre; across 2.98 m² that is roughly 1.3 to 1.5 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
This pile contains silk and is more delicate than pure wool. Vacuum without a rotating brush and along the pile, do not beat it, and keep it out of permanent direct sun. Blot spills at once with a light cloth, never rub. For a proper clean a silk-blend rug belongs in expert hands — we handle that for pieces bought from us.
