About This Garrous
Where it comes from
This is a hand-knotted Garrous rug, sometimes spelled Garrus, from the Kurdish highlands around Bijar in Iranian Kurdistan, measuring 276 x 168 cm (9'1" x 5'6"). Garrous pieces belong to the Bijar family of Kurdish weaving, prized above all for a density so firm that owners often say the rug will outlast every other textile in the house.
What you see
The field is a deep brick red, dense and warm from the first glance. Rising from it is an eight-pointed star medallion outlined in ivory, its centre built from concentric bands of small floral motifs rather than a plain round form. Around it the red ground is packed edge to edge with small diamond-lattice Mahi motifs, and ivory spandrels mark the four corners. A wide navy border frames the piece, carrying a running vine in dusty rose-pink and cream, with teal picked out along its length.
How it was made
This pattern was knotted from memory on a portable loom, which is why the medallion and its lattice keep a hand-made irregularity. Between 201,000 and 250,000 knots fill every square metre, set on a cotton warp with hand-spun wool at a 15 millimetre pile, giving the surface the tight, resistant structure the Bijar family is known for. That wool carries a natural, slightly matte sheen, and forty to sixty years have settled it into a surface meant to be walked on, not kept aside.
At home
This rug suits a living room seating group, anchoring a sofa and chairs. The red warms a pale floor and holds its own against dark wood, while the navy border keeps it grounded. Underfoot it is dense and firm, sturdy for daily use, and as light crosses the room the hand-spun wool catches a quiet sheen along the medallion and the border's pink vine.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 276 × 168 cm (4.64 m²) this is a medium rug. It works in front of a sofa, in front of a bed or in a study. It is too small for a dining table — there you want about 80 cm of clearance so a chair does not tip over the edge when pushed back.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 201,000 to 250,000 knots per square metre; across 4.64 m² that is roughly 0.9 to 1.2 million individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
Hand-spun wool still carries its own lanolin, which keeps liquid sitting on the surface for a moment: blot quickly, with clear water and a light cloth, working inwards and without rubbing. Otherwise regular vacuuming along the pile is enough. Turn the rug once or twice a year so light and footfall reach it evenly.
