A vintage, Persian Bidjar rug that was hand knotted in Iran of 100% natural wool with a cotton foundation. This finely woven Persian Bijar rug from Northwest Iran features a classic geometric medallion design rendered in a richly saturated palette. The composition is anchored by a vertical series of stepped medallions with cross-like extensions, set against a deep red field filled with a dense Herati-inspired pattern. This intricate field contrasts beautifully with the wide powder-blue main border, which is decorated with stylized floral vinery and rosette elements—an especially desirable feature that enhances the rug’s visual brightness and decorative appeal. Bijar designs are celebrated for their bold structure, symmetry, and durability, often referred to as the “iron rugs of Persia” for their dense construction. This example reflects that tradition in a more accessible small format, making it ideal for modern interiors while retaining authentic Persian character. This rug was acquired from a Richmond, Virginia estate. Clean and ready to be enjoyed.
