Description
Renowned for their exceptional durability and weight, the vintage Geralt Bijar rug showcases the region's signature geometric medallions rendered in luminous vegetable-dyed wool, with each tightly packed knot creating a remarkably dense yet supple pile. The vibrant palette - achieved through generations of perfected natural dye techniques - reveals subtle variations that testify to its authentic handmade origins, growing richer and more nuanced with age.
Hailing from Persia's Kurdish region, Bijar rugs are celebrated as "the iron rugs of Persia" for their extraordinary resilience and compactness. These masterpieces represent the pinnacle of tribal craftsmanship, where Kurdish artisans transform local wool into heirlooms capable of lasting centuries. More than mere furnishings, Bijar rugs embody the rugged beauty and cultural pride of northwestern Persia's weaving tradition.
