A 19th-century West Persian Bijar carpet from around 1890, measuring approximately 122.1 × 305.0 cm (about 4'0" × 10'0"). The composition is built on a salmon-toned field, in a long-format proportion well suited to galleries, hallways, and the long edges of large rooms. Bijar is a town in the Kurdish region of northwestern Persia (now Iran), historically known for producing some of the most densely woven, structurally heavy wool carpets in the Persian tradition — the so-called "iron carpets of Persia." Hand-woven wool, densely packed pile. Authentic one-of-a-kind antique.
