Bijar 23-01396 Bijar 3' X 5'

Bijar rugs are known for their durability and are sometimes referred to as "iron rugs" due to their ability to withstand heavy foot traffic and wear. The secret to their durability lies in the unique weaving technique used to create them. The weavers use a double-weft technique, which involves weaving two wefts between each row of knots. This creates a dense and tightly woven rug that is more durable than other types of Persian rugs.

The designs of Bijar rugs are often geometric in nature, with repeating patterns and bold colors. The most common colors used in Bijar rugs are red, blue, and ivory. Many Bijar rugs also feature a central medallion surrounded by smaller motifs and borders.

Bijar rugs gained popularity in Europe and the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They were often used in grand homes and public buildings due to their durability and beauty. Today, Bijar rugs are still highly sought after and are considered to be some of the finest Persian rugs available.
