Originating from the mountain villages of Western Persia's Kurdistan region, this antique Bijar rug was created circa 1915. The rug is characterized by its tribal style and features a harmonious blend of traditional Kurdish geometric patterns.
Constructed entirely from wool, both for the pile and the foundation, the rug exhibits exceptional durability. Bijar carpets are known for their sturdy construction, often employing a double-wefted technique that enhances their strength and longevity. This particular example retains the robust quality for which these rugs are celebrated.
The rug's design prominently features a rich tribal motif set against an ivory background. The central medallion is a striking dark blue, elaborately detailed with lighter blue and red accents. It serves as the focal point, drawing attention to the intricate artistry skillfully woven into the fabric. Surrounding the medallion, the design incorporates a complex array of geometric shapes and floral motifs, traditional elements common to Bijar rugs.
The color palette includes dominant shades of dark blue, red, and various blues, accented by whites and earthy tones. These hues are interwoven to create a visually cohesive and striking composition. Enhancing its aesthetic appeal, the rug features multiple borders, each with a distinct design. The outermost border is relatively thin and presents simple geometric patterns dominated by reds and whites. Moving inward, the subsequent border becomes more intricate, incorporating a broader range of colors, including blues, reds, and whites, with detailed floral and diamond motifs. The innermost border is the most elaborate, densely packed with detailed patterns in predominantly reds and blues, highlighted with white and touches of green.
The overall design is symmetrical along both vertical and horizontal axes, an element that adds to its visual balance. The traditional rectangular shape is subtly enhanced by slightly scalloped edges, lending a touch of uniqueness.
This rug not only showcases the technical excellence and artistic traditions of Kurdish weavers but also serves as a tangible link to the cultural heritage of the region. The robust construction and rich, traditional designs make this Bijar rug a notable example of Persian weaving craftsmanship from the early 20th century.

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.
