About This Bidjar
Where it comes from
This is a Bijar runner — also written Bidjar — from the Kurdish regions of western Iran, 386 x 85 cm (12'8" x 2'9"), a type long nicknamed the iron rugs of Persia for a density and toughness rare even among Persian weaves. That reputation usually belongs to a heavy, dark, deep-piled square rug. Here it carries through into a slender, ivory-ground runner instead.
What you see
The ground is ivory, crossed by a fine dark blue diamond lattice that reads as a grid before the pattern settles into view. Three lozenge medallions run the length of the runner, in a Seh Torandj arrangement, staggered rather than aligned, each in deep brick red around a navy-black centre, with floral spandrels spreading out from the points. Around all of it sits a border of cream and rust palmettes, with small touches of dusty rose and slate blue picked out in the motifs.
How it was made
Bijar rugs carry the densest knotting in the Persian tradition, and this one falls between 501,000 and 640,000 knots per square metre, work that took months at the loom and lets the fine diamond lattice and small floral spandrels stay sharp at this scale. The pile is wool with a little silk, spun fine enough to sharpen the drawing rather than to shine, so the surface stays matte rather than lustrous. That same tight compression is why a Bijar can only be rolled, never folded.
At home
A runner this size finds its place in a hallway or along a landing, where the ivory ground lifts a corridor that gets little daylight, while the brick red medallions hold their own against darker floors or furniture. Underfoot it is dense and firm, built for a passage walked every day. Under low light the navy lattice comes forward first, then the medallions.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 386 × 85 cm (3.28 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 501,000 to 640,000 knots per square metre; across 3.28 m² that is roughly 1.6 to 2.1 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.
