Story Behind the Art: Bidjar rugs are renowned for their exceptional strength, owing to their unique construction technique. Woven in the Kurdish regions around the town of Bijar in northwestern Iran, these rugs are densely packed through a method where the weft is repeatedly hammered down between knots, resulting in an extremely compact and heavy weave. Often referred to as the “Iron Rugs of Persia,” Bidjars use top-grade wool and display a wide variety of designs from florals to geometrics with rich, jewel-toned color schemes. Their durability, intricate artistry, and saturated hues make Bidjar rugs both a visual and functional masterpiece, especially admired for their ability to resist wear over time.
