Antique Bijar Hallway Runner Wool Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional example of weaving from the Kurdish region of Northwest Iran showcases the legendary density and robust construction for which Bijar carpets are known. The term "Iron Rugs of Persia" is often applied to these pieces, reflecting their enduring quality, a hallmark of fine Iranian / Persian rugs. The palette is sophisticated and restrained, centered on a rare, earthy olive-khaki field. This unusual tone provides a striking backdrop for the three large, highly geometric medallions rendered in deep indigo and navy blue, accented with terracotta and cream details. Its long, narrow format makes it an ideal piece for defining transitional spaces, perfectly suited to hallway runner rugs.
