An exceptional early 20th-century vintage Persian Bidjar rug, finely handwoven with a striking Herati field design and a central medallion framed by corner spandrels in brilliant white. The rich palette of red, French blue, pink, green, and golden yellow highlights the intricate pattern, creating a piece of remarkable depth and character. Known as the “iron rugs of Persia,” Bidjar rugs are celebrated for their extraordinarily tight weave, achieved through a unique wetting technique that doubles the density of material, resulting in exceptional durability.
