Key Features:

• Authentic Antique: This is a genuine antique, showcasing the rich patina, beautifully softened colors, and exceptional durability achieved only through decades of careful preservation and age (typically 80+ years).

• Renowned Bidjar Weave: Hailing from the Bidjar region of Persia, known for producing some of the densest and most durable hand-knotted rugs in the world, often referred to as "Iron Rugs" due to their incredible resilience and tight weave.

• Very Fine Quality: This designation speaks to a high knot count, resulting in incredibly intricate details, crisp patterns, and a remarkably durable pile that promises to withstand the test of time.

• Captivating Design & Rich Color Palette:

  • Classic Persian Medallion & All-Over Pattern: The rug features a striking central medallion, often octagonal or hexagonal, intricately detailed with geometric and stylized floral motifs. This central focal point is beautifully complemented by an elegant all-over pattern of smaller repeating medallions, rosettes, and interconnected vines filling the field.

  • Bold & Harmonious Hues: The palette is characteristic of antique Bidjars, featuring a vibrant interplay of deep, rich reds (often a classic madder red or rust) and luxurious navy blues. These dominant tones are expertly balanced by creamy ivory or soft beige accents, alongside touches of sage green, warm gold, and subtle light blue within the intricate details. The colors, softened by age, possess a unique depth and warmth that new rugs cannot replicate.

• Compact & Versatile Size: At 5'2" x 2'11", it's perfectly sized for an entryway, a cozy fireside accent, a luxurious bedside rug, or to define a smaller seating area, instantly adding a touch of antique charm and warmth.

• Hand-Knotted Excellence: Each knot is meticulously tied by hand, reflecting generations of weaving tradition and guaranteeing a unique piece with exceptional texture, longevity, and a truly artisanal feel.
