Description
Bold Centerpiece Design for Refined Spaces
Bring timeless Persian artistry into your home with this striking, hand-knotted Bidjar wool rug. Measuring 75cm x 150cm, this piece features a prominent, layered geometric diamond medallion rendered in soft ice-blue and ivory tones, framed beautifully by a vibrant crimson red field.
The background is densely woven with the classic Herati (Mahi) motif—a signature pattern of repeating rosettes and curved leaves that adds incredible depth and movement. It is anchored by a structured geometric samovar border, showcasing rich shades of indigo navy, olive green, and warm cream.
The "Iron Rug of Persia"
Renowned worldwide for their exceptional durability, authentic Bidjar rugs are heavily double-wefted. This traditional technique packs the high-grade wool rows tightly together, creating a sturdy, dense pile that naturally resists heavy foot traffic, stains, and daily wear.
Condition Report: Vintage Charm (As-Is)
This is a genuine vintage, hand-woven textile and shows signs of history and character:
-
Side Binding (Selvedge) Wear: The wool overcast binding along the upper edge has unraveled in one section, exposing a structural foundation thread (see detailed photos).
-
Options for Use: It can be used immediately as a beautiful vintage accent piece, secured with rug tape, or easily repaired by a professional rug restorer to rebuild the edge binding.
-
Overall State: Aside from this localized edge wear, the main wool pile, colors, and fringe foundation remain strong, vibrant, and intact. We have priced this piece accordingly to account for the necessary edge tune-up.
