About This Bidjar
Where it comes from
This is a Bijar, sometimes written Bidjar, a rug type from the Kurdish region of western Iran, measuring 248 x 177 cm (8'2" x 5'10"). Bijars are called the Iron Rugs of Persia for a structure so dense and firmly pressed that a piece this size can only be rolled, never folded, and for a weight that settles into a floor.
What you see
The field is a deep wine red, covered edge to edge by a fine Mahi lattice, and against that ground the eye goes straight to the medallion. Rather than one flat emblem, it is built from several nested hexagons, red giving way to cream and then to dark navy, so it reads as concentric rings rather than a single centre. The same navy fills the corner spandrels, and a wide ivory border carries a red-and-navy floral vine between two narrow navy guard stripes.
How it was made
Bijar weavers achieve the densest knotting in the Persian tradition, and this piece falls at 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre, on a cotton warp with a wool-and-silk pile clipped to 15 millimetres. Silk takes a finer twist than wool alone, and that finer thread is what lets the medallion's nested rings keep their edges instead of blurring into the field. At this density, a piece this size means months of work at the loom.
At home
A rug this size suits a seating area or a bedroom, where the medallion can be seen whole. The wine red holds its own against dark wood and warms a pale floor without needing bright light. Underfoot the pile is dense and firm, built for daily use rather than kept for best. As daylight crosses it, the ivory rings inside the medallion catch first, drawing the eye back to the same point each time you enter.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 248 × 177 cm (4.39 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 4.39 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.
