About This Bidjar
Where it comes from
This is a Bijar, also written Bidjar, from the Kurdish regions of western Iran, 254 x 174 cm (8'4" x 5'9"). The type is known across Persia as the Iron Rugs, prized for a density so tight that a finished piece can only be rolled, never folded, and for holding its shape and edge through decades of hard daily use.
What you see
A warm brick-red field carries a fine diamond lattice across its whole surface, the ground scattered with small rust, dusty rose and sage flowers. Rising through the centre is a long navy medallion, its floral pendants stretched almost to the top and bottom of the field rather than gathered into a round rosette, so the eye follows a vertical line instead of settling on one point. The corners answer in the same drawing, ivory and rust spandrels echoing the medallion's floral shapes. A wide navy border, dense with a rust-and-cream vine, closes the composition, held in by narrow ivory and blue guard stripes.
How it was made
Bijar's reputation for density is not exaggeration: this piece carries between 441,000 and 500,000 knots to the square metre, a count few weaving traditions attempt, and it is what lets the lattice stay so fine and the medallion's long pendants keep a clean edge rather than blur into the field. A small amount of silk is worked through the wool pile, catching light along the drawing's edges with a soft sheen, while the weave is pressed so firm at the loom that a Bijar of this kind resists folding entirely. At 15mm the pile sits low and close, substantial underfoot rather than deep, which is exactly what gives the rug its long-standing name for holding a pattern under years of walking.
At home
In a living room, set in front of a sofa or beneath a low table, the brick red holds its own against dark wood or leather and warms a pale floor without needing much else to match it. The dense, firm weave takes daily footsteps without complaint, the kind of rug you can genuinely live on rather than around, and the low pile keeps it settled flat underfoot. As daylight moves across the room, the silk in the pile lifts the rust and cream of the border in turn, and the medallion's upward reach keeps drawing the eye long after the first look.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 254 × 174 cm (4.42 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 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre; across 4.42 m² that is roughly 1.9 to 2.2 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.
