No Reserve Persian Bijar 142A vintage 3'6"x12'9" rug hand-knotted in Iran in the 1960s and in very good condition (see photos). This impressive Bijar runner showcases the strength and refinement that have earned Bijar rugs the nickname “the iron rugs of Persia.” The piece features a red/terracotta field filled with a dense, highly detailed pattern of floral rosettes, stylized leaves, and tribal motifs with accents of cream, peach, brown and blue. A light, finely patterned border provide a bold frame. The complex design and tight symmetry are classic hallmarks of top quality Bijar weaving. Hand-knotted by skilled artisans, this rug is woven using high grade wool and colored exclusively with natural vegetable dyes. These traditional dyes give the colors a rich, organic depth and subtle variation that synthetic colors can’t match; the tones will continue to mellow beautifully over time. The famously dense Bijar construction—created by firmly packing the knots—results in an exceptionally durable, heavy, and resilient pile, ideal for high traffic areas like hallways and entryways while still feeling substantial and luxurious underfoot. With its robust structure, earthy palette, and intricate tribal floral design, this hand-knotted, vegetable dyed Bijar runner is perfect for buyers seeking an heirloom quality piece that combines everyday practicality with authentic Persian character. It will add warmth, sophistication, and a strong sense of tradition to any narrow space.
