Bidjar Iran Rug 160 X 112 Cm

Carpet from Iranian Kurdistan (western Iran) kurk wool (fine lamb's wool), cotton warp and weft, circa 1940. Very good condition.

Located in Kurdistan, bidjars are held in high esteem, due to their great robustness and resistance to wear. These are rugs appreciated by enthusiasts because of their authenticity and their typically Persian charm. Carpets from Bidjar and surrounding villages are made with the turkbaff knot (double knot) and are renowned for their great resistance to wear. A traditional bidjar has 3 to 5 rows of weft threads. In addition, the quality of the wool and the weaving make these rugs virtually indestructible. They are called 'iron carpets'.
