Antique Bidjar carpets from north west Persia are famed amongst Persian tribal village rugs for the quality of their tight precise weaves and often dazzling interaction of their designs and colours.
This stylish example has a muted blue colour field providing great contrast to the harmonious colour combination of the drawing, framed by a wide terracotta border. A great versatile piece, it is in good practical condition and not common in this large squarish format.
Bidjar is situated in a corridor between the borders of Persia, Anatolia and the Caucasus so has a weaving tradition that encompasses a varied mix of cultural influences from these regions. This can be seen in the broad range of styles and patterns in Bidjar carpets which makes them unique and challenging to distinguish them from rugs from other regions. They are diverse and versatile pieces that would complement both classic and contemporary settings.
