This antique Persian Bidjar from the early 1900s rests on a marbled camel ground that gives the whole piece depth and warmth. The field is alive with curling vines, boteh paisleys, stylized blossoms, and serrated leaves that sweep from end to end, creating a movement where motifs seem to float and then reappear.
The camel ground lets a myriad of vegetable dyed colors read rich and dimensional, with soft abrash that adds character and sweet art expression from the female weaver. It is playful and beautiful, yet unmistakably strong, woven to live through generations as Bidjars are known for. Heavy, stout, and solid underfoot with a dense weave and a confident handle. Exceptional character, design, and strength in a runner that will anchor a hallway or gallery with soul. On a wool foundation...look at those raw and beautiful fringes.
