Remarkable Antique Bijar Carpet – Terracotta Ground with Herati Design & Triple Border

This remarkable antique Bijar carpet from the rug-weaving heartland of West Iran is a true example of enduring craftsmanship and intricate design. Renowned for their robustness and density, Bijar rugs—often called the “Iron Rugs of Persia”—are prized by collectors and interior designers alike.

At the center of this piece is a triple medallion motif resting on a warm terracotta ground, filled with the classic Herati design, a symbol of fertility and prosperity. The fine detailing and layered layout speak to the skill of its weaver and the deep-rooted traditions of Bijar rug-making.

What sets this rug apart is its rare triple border arrangement:

  • Two terracotta borders decorated with floral heads and leaves add cohesion and depth.

  • A central cream border features stylised flower heads, offering elegant contrast and balance.

Together, these elements create a powerful decorative impact that adds warmth, character, and sophistication to any setting—be it a traditional room or a modern interior seeking a vintage accent.
