19th Century W. Persian Bijar Carpet ( 11'2" x 8'2" x 340 x 554 )
19th Century West Persian Bijar Carpet, 11'2" × 18'2"
This magnificent 19th century West Persian Bijar carpet (circa 1880) reflects the enduring artistry and durability for which Bijar weavings are renowned. Known as the “Iron Rugs of Persia” due to their dense construction and longevity, this piece exemplifies the strength and elegance of the Bijar tradition.
Woven in hand-knotted wool, the carpet presents a richly detailed powder blue ground adorned with a continuous lattice of stylized floral motifs, rendered in soft ivory, muted golds, and earthy accents. The composition is framed by a series of intricate borders in soft red and complementary tones, lending depth and refinement to the overall design.
Measuring 11'2" × 18'2" (340 × 554 cm), this large-scale carpet offers both grandeur and versatility, ideal for an expansive living room, library, or dining space. Its robust weave and graceful palette make it equally suitable for collectors of important Persian carpets and for decorators seeking a statement piece that balances strength with timeless beauty.
