About This Garrous
Where it comes from
Garrous, also written Garrus, is the name Kurdish weavers in the highlands around Bijar, in western Iran, gave to their own weaving tradition, part of the same family that made Bijar rugs famous for their density. This piece is a runner, 318 x 149 cm (10'5" x 4'11"), hand-knotted in wool, carrying that reputation into a narrow, well-walked space rather than a wide floor.
What you see
The first impression is a bold medallion in navy and cream, floating on a densely patterned brick-red ground. Look closer and the ground resolves into a Mahi lattice, small fish-and-rosette motifs repeating across the field until the eye settles on the medallion. Cream and navy nest inside it in layered outlines, and the same navy returns in the spandrels at each corner. A wide navy border, about a fifth of the width, carries a rust-red palmette and vine that answers the field without competing with the medallion.
How it was made
Weavers around Bijar built rugs to last, packing the wool weft hard against a cotton warp until the fabric grew almost rigid - the iron-like density the region is known for. This one is knotted in hand-spun wool at 128,000 to 160,000 knots per square metre, the pile left at a full 15 mm, giving real substance underfoot rather than fine drawing. Forty to sixty years of wear have only settled its colours, and a slight ribbing at the fringe shows how firmly the weft was beaten in.
At home
This runner suits a hallway or landing, and its brick red warms a dim passage and holds its own without daylight. Underfoot it is dense and firm, built for daily footsteps rather than to be kept for best. Morning or evening, the rust and gold in the border catch the light differently, and the palmette vine never quite repeats itself.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 318 × 149 cm (4.74 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 128,000 to 160,000 knots per square metre; across 4.74 m² that is roughly 610,000 to 760,000 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.
