Known for their exceptional strength and longevity, Bijar rugs are often referred to as the “iron carpets” of Persia. This particular example, however, stands out not just for its robust construction, but for its rare and unusual design.

The standout feature is the elegantly elongated oval medallion that stretches from end to end, filled with beautifully drawn floral motifs that showcase the weaver’s artistry and sense of proportion. The blue spandrels add depth and definition to the field, while the narrow borders frame the composition in a refined and understated way.

Woven with high-quality wool and dyed using natural pigments, the rug has a lustrous surface and rich colour palette that elevate its presence. These qualities make it both decorative and collectible, especially given the unique design that deviates from typical Bijar patterns.

There is a minor shadowing in one corner and some visible warps in a small area—both of which are cosmetic and reflected in the very competitive pricing. These imperfections do not affect the structural integrity of the rug and only add to its authenticity and charm.
