Antique Bijar Persian Blue 1890s Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of Iranian / Persian rugs showcases the robust construction and dense knotting characteristic of the Kurdish weavers of the Bijar region. The design features a complex, powerful medallion and corner scheme set against a deeply saturated field, utilizing traditional village motifs. The primary palette is dominated by a rich, cochineal red border framing a magnificent field of deep indigo blue. Within this field, small, stylized floral and geometric motifs are scattered, creating a lively "garden" effect typical of the finest bijar weaving. The contrast between the saturated dyes highlights the precision and complexity of the pattern execution.
