About This Bidjar
Where it comes from
A Bidjar, knotted by Kurdish weavers in the west of Iran, measuring 342 x 252 cm (11'3" x 8'3"). The type is known across the trade as one of the "iron rugs of Persia" — a Bijar holds its shape and its edge for decades, even under daily footfall, because of how tightly it is built. This piece keeps that reputation but wears it quietly: an even, all-over pattern with no medallion, closer to a fine woven fabric than to a bold Persian showpiece.
What you see
The field is a deep wine-red, almost blackened in places, and at first glance it reads as a single dense weave rather than a pattern at all. Look closer and it resolves into a repeating lattice of Mahi diamonds, outlined in navy and black, each one holding a small floral turn in ivory and cream. Dusty rose and sage green sit inside the lattice as quiet accents, with the occasional touch of gold. A broad floral vine border, on the same red ground, runs the full perimeter and takes up close to a fifth of the width, held in by narrower guard stripes on either side.
How it was made
Bijar rugs of this region carry a reputation for the densest knotting in the Persian tradition, and this one sits at 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre — a count that takes a weaver months to cover, diamond by diamond. The pile is wool blended with silk over a cotton warp, and it is the silk that gives the lattice its crisp, slightly lit edge rather than a soft blur, which is why the pattern holds together so well at a distance. That same density is what makes a Bijar impossible to fold — only ever rolled — and what gives it the low, tightly pressed, faintly ribbed surface underfoot.
At home
At this size the rug is built for a dining room or a living room seating group, and the wine-red holds its own against dark wood or dark upholstery without needing a lighter floor to lift it. Underfoot it is dense and firm rather than soft and deep, a rug meant to be walked on rather than kept for best. As the light moves across the room, the lattice catches the silk just enough to shift between a flat, absorbing red and a faint sheen, so the field never sits entirely still.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 342 × 252 cm (8.62 m²) this is a very large rug. It carries a whole seating group with every furniture leg on it, or a dining table with the chairs pushed back. In a small room it becomes the floor rather than a rug.
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 8.62 m² that is roughly 3.8 to 4.3 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.
