This antique Persian Bijar tribal rug, crafted circa 1930, features a robust construction of wool on a cotton foundation. Originating from the mountain villages in the Kurdistan region of western Persia, Bijar rugs are renowned for their enduring durability and traditional design. The tribal style of this specific piece presents a rich red background interwoven with intricate floral and geometric patterns, typical of traditional Kurdish motifs.

The central field of the rug is dominated by a repeating allover pattern that lacks a central medallion, favoring a dense tapestry of finely detailed design elements. The primary color is shades of deep red and maroon, with smaller design elements in complementary hues of cream, blue, gold, and green, creating a vivid but balanced look.

Navy borders frame the rug, providing a striking contrast to the red-dominated central field. This outermost border is decorated with elaborate floral and vine designs in a range of colors, maintaining the same intricate detail found throughout the rug. A more delicate red border lies inside the primary border, featuring smaller floral motifs and another narrow red divide filled with subdued floral-geometric patterns, linking the central field seamlessly to the elaborate borders.

The symmetrical design demonstrates a meticulously balanced repeat of patterns, enhancing the visual harmony of the rug. Traditionally double-wefted, this Bijar rug's structure contributes to its noted durability and resilience, characteristics highly valued in Kurdish weaving techniques. The interplay of traditional motifs and high technical quality encapsulates the rich cultural heritage and craftsmanship of the Kurdish people, making this piece not only aesthetically appealing but also historically significant.
