About the Item
78754 Antique Persian Bijar Rug Runner, 03'08 x 11'01. Persian Bijar carpet runners, slender and elongated, trace their origins to Bijar in western Iran, celebrated for their unparalleled durability and resilience. These masterpieces are meticulously crafted by skilled Kurdish artisans employing intricate weaving methods, a tradition passed down through generations. Each runner is adorned with elaborate designs inspired by the region's cultural history, featuring geometric motifs, floral arrangements, and vibrant medallion patterns woven with meticulous precision. Despite their Iranian heritage, Persian Bijar carpet runners have transcended borders, earning admiration globally for their enduring charm and exquisite craftsmanship, enriching homes across continents with their timeless allure and serving as a testament to the enduring legacy of Persian rug weaving.
Infused with the essence of Midcentury Modern style, this hand-knotted wool antique Persian Bijar rug runner seamlessly blends stylish durability with a touch of earth-tone elegance. At its heart lies a captivating serrated hexagon medallion, adorned with the timeless boteh motif, often referred to as the 'Seed of Life'. Symbolizing potential for growth and regeneration, the boteh motifs radiate outward from the center, embellishing the black backdrop with their mesmerizing presence. Against this nocturnal canvas, an enchanting allover pattern of Herati motifs unfolds, reminiscent of a flourishing garden blooming at midnight, while equally compelling Herati motifs grace the corner spandrels, juxtaposed against a backdrop of light brown.
Throughout this Bijar rug, the Herati design reigns supreme, paying homage to the revered Classic Herati pattern, also known as the Mahi or Fish pattern, emblematic of Persian artistry. A central flower, encased within a diamond shape, serves as the focal point, surrounded by gracefully curving lanceolate leaves that evoke the image of fish swimming beneath the moon's ethereal glow. In the cultural history of Iran, the Herati motif carries profound symbolism, representing the emergence of life and the eternal cycle of regeneration, capturing the imagination with its timeless allure and evocative beauty.
Rendered in variegated shades of brown, black, tan, blue, red, pink, rust, camel, champagne, cerulean, and beige with other accent colors.
