About This Bidjar

Where it comes from

This is a Bijar, also written Bidjar, a hand-knotted runner from the Kurdish regions of western Iran, 299 x 101 cm (9'10" x 3'4"). Bijar rugs are known as the Iron Rugs of Persia, prized for a density few Persian weaves attempt, and for holding their shape and sharpness for decades.

What you see

A deep brick red fills the length of the runner, carrying a fine Mahi lattice that repeats without a break. Along this ground sit four medallions in navy, near enough black, spaced at even intervals and drawn to almost the same size, so the eye reads a sequence rather than a single field. Their centres hold cream and salmon-pink rosettes, with soft blue and camel caught in the lattice around them. A wide navy-black border, darker than the field, frames it all with a floral vine and a narrow cream stripe just inside.

How it was made

At 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre, this weave sits among the tightest in the Persian tradition, dense enough that a Bijar is never folded, only rolled. The pile is wool worked through with silk on a cotton warp, giving the surface its slight sheen and its smooth, even face. Knotted from memory rather than from a drawn cartoon, the weaver still carried the same medallion four times down the length, close enough in size and outline that the repeat feels intended rather than accidental.

At home

As a runner, this length suits a hallway or landing, somewhere feet cross daily rather than a room seen only from a chair. The brick red holds its warmth without direct light, while the dark border keeps it grounded rather than loud. Underfoot it is dense and firm, built to the strength that gives Bijar its name, and made for daily footfall rather than careful protection. Walk its length and the four medallions lead the eye forward, one after another, catching a faint sheen from the silk as the light along the hall shifts through the day.

Questions about this rug

Which room is this rug for?

At 299 × 101 cm (3.02 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 3.02 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.
