Originating from Persia, this Bijar rug exemplifies the tribal style associated with the region. It was crafted circa 1920 and features a brick-red background complemented by a navy border. The predominant color is a rich red. Made of wool on a cotton foundation, the rug’s construction reflects the traditional techniques that Bijar rugs are renowned for.
Bijar rugs come from the mountain villages of the Kurdistan region in Western Persia. These rugs are celebrated for their durability, attributed to their double-wefted weaving technique which makes them exceptionally sturdy. Such construction not only contributes to their resilience but also affects their texture in a distinct manner compared to other Persian rugs.
The design of this particular rug is steeped in traditional Kurdish geometric styles. The central medallion is diamond-shaped with angular extensions and intricate interior elements. The overall pattern is densely packed with small motifs including flowers, geometric shapes, and vines, creating a visually complex texture. Alongside the red field, the secondary colors such as dark blue, cream, and gold bring depth to the design, while light blue and white highlight specific elements.
Bijar rugs often incorporate notable motifs such as the Herati pattern, continuous flowers, and vines, as well as boteh designs, which illustrate a blend of abstract and naturalistic art. These artistic features are reflective of the cultural heritage of the Kurdish people, embodying their daily life and craftsmanship. The navy border is decorated with repeating geometric and floral motifs, framed by narrower inner and outer borders with simpler repeating designs in cream and red.
Symmetry plays a significant role in the design of this rug, with elements on the horizontal and vertical axes mirroring each other to create a harmonious and balanced appearance. The pattern density is particularly high within the central field, which makes the intricate design stand out vividly against the rich red background.
In essence, this Persian Bijar rug is a testament to the craftsmanship and cultural history of its makers, showcasing robust construction and traditional design elements honed over decades.

Don’t take our word for it


Last fall, my husband and I purchased a gorgeous silk from you for our Boston Condo. Based on the quality of your rugs and customer service, we decided to visit you again to purchase rugs for our Connecticut home. Luckily, we received your postcard about the tent sale and came home with two more stunning rugs.


I can't say enough good things about this store, especially Susanne and Breanna. I shop at many rug places as I am an interior designer looking for very specific rugs all the time. No one out there compares to this store and their wonderful Sales associates. Thank you Susanne and Breanna for all your help!


Over the past year we purchased three rugs, as well as carpet from L&A. Our experience could not have been more positive and we love what we purchased.
In addition, every single person
in the showroom was beyond helpful, knowledgeable and kind. It was truly a pleasure. Thank you!


Never have I enjoyed spending money as much as at Landry & Arcari!!! Thank you so much for your attention and guidance. The rug I chose grounds the furniture and makes the living room. It is so beautiful and I really appreciate all of your help.
