This antique circa 1920 Bidjar rug is a handmade, one-of-a-kind Persian runner distinguished by its striking geometric drawing and beautifully time-softened palette. The hand-knotted design features a pale blue field with ivory tribal motifs, stepped medallion forms, and a bold border that gives the piece strong architectural presence and collector appeal. Its faded coloration and refined village craftsmanship make it an elegant choice for a hallway, entryway, or office.
Faded cool tones of sky blue, ivory, powder blue, beige, and taupe, with a blue field.
Bidjar is a Kurdish town in northwestern Iran, renowned for producing what are often called the "iron rugs of Persia" — the heaviest, most densely woven and structurally rigid pile rugs in the world. The distinctive construction technique, in which the weft threads are hammered tightly into place during weaving, creates an almost board-like stiffness and an exceptionally dense pile that wears virtually indefinitely.
Bidjar designs include elaborate herati patterns, large floral medallions, and the distinctive "garden" or vase carpet format. Their palette tends toward deep jewel tones — rich madder reds, indigos, and ivory. Bidjar rugs are ideal for high-traffic areas and are among the most durable of all Oriental rugs.
