This truly remarkable antique Persian Bidjar rug on an espresso brown ground, skillfully handwoven by tribal artisans is endowed with a substantial weight that speaks to its enduring quality. Its classic Herati design, sprawling across its entire expanse, promises a versatile addition to any space that is easy to style with its all over art.
Renowned for their resilience, Bidjar rugs have earned their reputation as heavy-duty floor coverings, a result of the meticulous process where each knot was meticulously pounded into place by the skilled hands of women on the loom.
The border, adorned in a striking French blue hue, commands attention with its astonishing visual impact. Complementing this, the rug's warm and inviting color palette contributes to its overall charm.
Having gracefully weathered 120 years, this antique Persian rug bears witness to a rich history. It was masterfully crafted using wool dyed with natural vegetable sources, a testament to the artistry of its creation and one of the most valuable aspects of antique rugs. The wool's healthy sheen and the presence of lanolin oils trapped within its fibers further lends to its amazing quality. Incredibly well-preserved for its age, this rug continues to exude a timeless appeal that showcases the enduring craftsmanship and aesthetics of generations past.
