Vintage Handmade Persian Bidjar Rug – 161 × 100 cm (5 ft 3 in × 3 ft 3 in)

Authentic Persian Craftsmanship • Fine Lamb’s Wool • Traditional Herati Design • Vintage Quality

This beautiful vintage handmade Persian Bidjar rug is a fine example of the renowned durability and craftsmanship associated with Bidjar weaving. Hand knotted approximately 40–50 years ago, it combines exceptional quality with a timeless geometric design that complements both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Measuring 161 × 100 cm (approximately 5 ft 3 in × 3 ft 3 in), this versatile rug is ideal for a living room, bedroom, study, entrance hall or beneath a coffee table.

The rich madder red field is centred by a striking geometric medallion and filled with the classic Herati (fish) pattern, one of the most admired traditional Persian designs. Deep navy spandrels and finely detailed borders provide beautiful contrast, while the harmonious colour palette gives the rug warmth, elegance and lasting character.

Hand knotted from fine lamb’s wool on a durable cotton foundation, this rug is renowned for its strength and longevity. It has been professionally hand washed and is clean, fresh and ready for immediate use or display.
