About This Bidjar
Where it comes from
This is a Bijar — also written Bidjar — a rectangular rug measuring 341 x 255 cm (11'2" x 8'4"), knotted in the Kurdish regions of western Iran. The type has long carried the name "the Iron Rugs of Persia", earned by a structure so dense and firmly pressed that it is rolled rather than folded, and known above all for outlasting almost every other Persian weave.
What you see
The first impression is dark: a deep navy field, almost blue-black in its shadows, overlaid with a fine, dense diamond lattice in the Mahi, or "fish", repeat that covers the entire rug without a medallion to interrupt it. Small rosettes in rust-orange and dark red sit scattered through the lattice, with occasional touches of dark green, and here and there the navy shifts a shade deeper still, a variation consistent with wool spun by hand. Around this dark, even field runs a wide border in brick red, carrying a floral vine in cream and dark red that reads considerably lighter and warmer than the field it frames.
How it was made
That fineness comes from the knotting itself: this Bijar carries between 441,000 and 500,000 knots per square metre, among the densest counts in the Persian tradition, pressed hard against a cotton warp as the weaver works. Silk spins far finer than wool, and blended through the pile it lets the pattern hold a sharpness that wool alone could not draw at this scale. At 15 mm the pile still feels substantial underfoot, and the whole construction is pressed so tight that the rug can only be rolled, never folded, without strain on its structure.
At home
With its size, this Bijar suits a dining table or the centre of a living room seating group, somewhere it can be seen whole rather than glimpsed at the edges. The deep navy field holds its own against dark wood or leather furniture, and over a pale floor it reads as an anchor rather than a shadow, while the brick red border keeps the whole piece from turning sombre. Underfoot it is dense, firm and noticeably heavy, built for daily footsteps rather than for careful handling, so a busy household will do it no harm at all. In the low light of evening the navy settles deeper still and the rust and cream in the border step forward, so the rug never quite holds the same mood twice.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 341 × 255 cm (8.70 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 8.70 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.
