A vintage Bijar or Bidjar rug with a truly super high knot density in the weave. The flower patter is repeated throught the main field of the rug, but the colours change, adding movement to this little rug. This rug is extremely thick and heavy and will stand well in heavy traffic areas.
Material: 100% hand-spun sheep wool
Size: 91X74 cms
Origin: Bijar, Iran
Date of weaving: 1970s
Bidjar (Bijar) rugs are robust and dirt-resistant. This small town in western Iran is inhabited by Kurds. Kurdish carpets are known for their firm knotting. The pile is compressed so strongly that it stands vertically upwards. The carpets are knotted with a traditional Turkish knot. This way, dirt particles have less chance of getting in the pile. The positive effect: the rug benefits from a longe life span.
