Story Behind the Art: Bidjar rugs, named after the city of their origin in northwestern Iran, are renowned not for a single design style but for their distinctive construction. Woven with a unique technique in which weavers repeatedly beat down the weft with a heavy comb or hammer, these rugs achieve an extraordinarily dense, compact structure that makes them among the most durable of all Persian carpets. Crafted from superior-quality wool, Bidjars are substantial and long-lasting, often referred to as the “iron rugs of Persia.” Their designs vary widely from medallions to allover patterns but what unites them is the masterful use of color: rich, deeply saturated jewel tones that create rugs of striking presence and enduring beauty. Considered village weavings, Bidjar rugs embody both strength and artistry, admired equally for their practicality and captivating aesthetic.
