About This Bidjar
Where it comes from
This is a Bidjar, also written Bijar, from the Kurdish weaving regions of western Iran, 350 x 251 cm (11'6" x 8'3"). Knotted from memory rather than from a drawn plan, the type carries the old nickname the Iron Rugs of Persia, earned by a structure pressed so tight that a Bidjar cannot be folded, only rolled.
What you see
A warm brick red fills the field, dense with a fine mahi lattice of small fish and rosettes. At its centre sits a large lobed medallion in navy and ivory, its two pendant finials falling exactly on the vertical axis, giving the layout an unusually formal symmetry for a piece knotted by hand rather than drawn. Cream floral outlines, forest green, rust and camel move through the surrounding palmettes, echoed in the corner spandrels. A broad navy border carrying pale scrollwork closes the design, taking up roughly a fifth of the width.
How it was made
The pile is wool with an admixture of silk, knotted onto a cotton warp at 441,000 to 500,000 knots per square metre, among the highest densities in Persian weaving. Silk spins finer than wool, so more knots pack into the same space, pressing this surface flat and even, with barely any ribbing. At 15 millimetres, that density keeps the medallion's lines sharp and the whole piece firm underfoot, the quality that earned the type its old nickname.
At home
This Bidjar suits a dining table or a wide seating group in a living room, somewhere it can be seen whole. Its brick red warms a pale floor and holds its own against dark wood, with the navy border keeping the whole composition grounded. Underfoot it is dense and firm, built for daily use rather than display, the silk in the pile catching light along the medallion's ivory lines as the day moves.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 350 × 251 cm (8.79 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 8.79 m² that is roughly 3.9 to 4.4 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.
