About This Bidjar
Where it comes from
This is a Bidjar, also written Bijar, from the Kurdish regions of western Iran, measuring 180 x 118 cm (5'11" x 3'10"). The type is known above all for its density — pressed so tightly at the loom that a Bidjar cannot be folded, only rolled, and is nicknamed the iron rug of Persia for how long it holds its shape underfoot.
What you see
A warm brick red fills the field, fine and even, almost gridded beneath it. Across it floats a lobed ivory-cream medallion, echoed in matching pendants top and bottom, clear of the ground rather than crowded against it. The diamond lattice around it — olive, camel and dusty rose — is drawn with unusual regularity for the type, each cell close to its neighbour in size, the lines rarely bending. A wide navy-black border, filled with polychrome floral vines, closes the design behind a narrow cream guard stripe.
How it was made
The pile is hand-spun wool, knotted by hand onto a cotton warp at a density of 321,000 to 380,000 knots per square metre — close enough to hold a design this fine without blurring at the edges. Trimmed to a low 5 mm pile, the wool is spun with just enough irregularity to catch a faint sheen where the cream and camel tones sit, giving the lattice its crisp, almost drawn quality rather than a soft, worn-in blur.
At home
At this size, a Bidjar suits a bedroom or a study, beside a bed or under a small reading chair. The brick red holds its own against dark wood and warms a pale floor, while the ivory medallion lifts a room short on daylight. Underfoot it is dense and firm, built to be walked on, and the light catches the camel and cream tones in a quiet sheen.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 180 × 118 cm (2.12 m²) this is a small rug. It works beside a bed, in a reading corner, in front of a fireplace or as a mat by a door. It does not furnish a room; it makes a point in one.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 321,000 to 380,000 knots per square metre; across 2.12 m² that is roughly 680,000 to 810,000 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.
