It also cuts a fine figure in the study. Colouring and structure give every room a homely, exclusive note – a one-of-a-kind piece that will last for years.

Origin

This rug was knotted in Bijar, in the province of Kermanshah in north-western Iran. Bijar rugs are among the sturdiest and finest Oriental rugs. The majority of the population in Bijar are Kurds.

In the Kurdish Bijar, a particularly thick and extremely hard weft yarn is beaten into the weave. The result is a board-stiff rug that is exceptionally hard-wearing. The younger Bijars in particular are decorated with the typical Herati pattern, also known as the fish pattern.

This old Bijar is around 86 years old and a real collector's piece.

Material

The pile of this Old Bijar was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by shearing sheep gently. New wool is a renewable, natural raw material with a number of impressive properties: thanks to the natural lanolin content of the wool, the surface repels drops of water and is therefore naturally protected against dirt. Wool also provides excellent thermal insulation, has a regulating effect on the indoor climate and dampens sound.

The weft and warp threads of this Old Bijar are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and elastic, which makes it especially well suited to a hard-wearing foundation weave.

Condition

This Old Bijar has a history. It was knotted around 1940. It has been cleaned thoroughly and is in good but only partly restored condition. The rug was shortened at one end and re-wrapped. The fringes were also re-knotted. One small corner was shortened a little more, so there is a slight slant to it. We have not fully restored this Old Bijar, because we feel it has a special presence just as it is. If that is what you would like, we will of course carry the restoration further for you. We can bring almost any rug back to near-perfect condition.
