About This Bidjar
Where it comes from
This is a Bijar, also written Bidjar, 233 x 167 cm (7'8" x 5'6"), knotted in the Kurdish regions of western Iran. Nicknamed the iron rug of Persia, the type is known for a density so tight it can only be rolled, never folded, and for combining strong geometry with classical Persian floral pattern. This piece is a textbook example, calmly and evenly drawn.
What you see
The field is a deep brick red, crossed by a fine navy diamond lattice repeating without a break across the whole rug. There is no medallion, only the steady rhythm of the Mahi, or fish, pattern running edge to edge, giving the field an almost woven, textile look from a distance. Around it sits a wide ivory border filled with red and navy palmette and vine scrollwork, then a slim black outer band, left plain where everything beside it is patterned.
How it was made
That evenness comes from the knotting: this Bijar carries between 441,000 and 500,000 knots per square metre, among the highest counts in Persian weaving, tied by hand over months at the loom. A little silk runs through the wool pile; silk spins finer than wool, letting the knot pack tighter and giving the pattern its crisp edge. A cotton warp keeps the structure firm, and a fifteen-millimetre pile lets the lattice read clearly rather than blur.
At home
This rug suits a seating area or a bedroom, where the deep red holds its own against dark wood or pale oak alike. Underfoot it is dense and firm, pressed close by its own knotting, and made to be walked on rather than kept for best. In a room with little daylight the ivory border still catches what light there is, and the field settles quietly as the sun moves across it.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 233 × 167 cm (3.89 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 3.89 m² that is roughly 1.7 to 1.9 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.
