Description
This vintage Bijar carpet is a powerful and confident piece, created to last and to be lived with. Bijar rugs are known for their exceptional strength and weight, often described as some of the most durable carpets ever woven. This example reflects that reputation fully, with a dense structure and a firm handle that feels reassuring underfoot.
The design centres around a classic Herati pattern arranged neatly around a strong central medallion. The rhythm of small floral motifs gives the carpet depth and movement without feeling busy. Rich red and deep blue tones dominate the field, softened by carefully balanced cream details that bring clarity and structure to the overall design.
The wool has aged beautifully, developing a natural sheen that only time can create. The pile remains full and even, showing that this carpet has been well cared for and lightly used. It feels substantial, grounded, and confident, making it ideal for a main living space or dining room where presence matters.
This is not a decorative trend piece. It is a carpet chosen for longevity, character, and quiet authority. A true vintage Bijar like this is an investment that carries history, craftsmanship, and lasting value into the present day.

What Our Customers Say About Us?
Everything was perfect - very nice selection of fine and authentic kilims (my interest), shipment to Germany was super fast, contact very friendly. When there was a problem with the mail for one purchase i was constantly informed. And finally also this piece arrived in very good shape.
Robert
A Thoroughly excellent service. Mehdi was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He brought 7 rugs to our home so that we could see them in situ which made the whole process so much easier.
Would definitely recommend Sharif & Co if you are after a carpet or rug.
Nigel Gordon
Friendly and helpful advice without any sales push. I’ve bought two items from this dealer which is quite unusual. I’m very happy with what I bought and would again buy from him. I watch his web site to see what new items come in.
Mr Paul Ackland
As ever, a very kindly, helpful visit by Mehdi Sharafi himself, with all the three pieces I was choosing from. His expertise is always a pleasure to witness! And the item I bought is superb. Payment and the website couldn’t be easier. MANY THANKS!
Mr Last
I was extremely surprised at how quickly the rug arrived, less than 24 hours. The item was exactly as described and pictured. Thank you very much.
Jenny T.
I bought a Heidarian rug online from Sharafi & Co. Their communications were excellent, they arranged delivery very swiftly, and I'm really delighted with the rug, it's beautiful.
