Description

Late 19th Century Persian Bidjar Runner, in an all over paisley pattern in a rare and highly desirable ivory color background. Originating from the skilled village weavers of the Bidjar region in Persia, these rugs are celebrated for their exceptionally dense "iron-like" weave, use of the finest wool, and robust, vibrant designs—hallmarks of authentic tribal and village weaving.

This beautiful Bidjar runner features a desirable light cream color field, providing a luminous and sophisticated backdrop. Adorning this field is an enchanting all-over pattern of delicate flower heads, considered a charming variation of the classic paisley motif. This intricate design creates a continuous flow of understated elegance.

A distinct accent is provided by a border segment in a rich brick color, which contains a graceful leaf design rendered in vibrant shades of red, green, blue, and pink. The major border, however, is truly striking: set against a deep navy background, it bursts with a colorful geometric square design, featuring brilliant hues including verdant green, classic red, warm brown, and many more. This dynamic border beautifully frames the central field, enhancing the rug's overall grandeur and decorative appeal.
