Lot #92: Persian bidjar handmade area rug

Hand knotted tribal rug, in Persian style. These rugs are known for their geometric patterns, rich, dark color palettes, and durable wool construction. Origin: The style originates from the Baluchistan region, which borders Iran, with similar designs also found in Caucasian and Turkmen areas. Design: It features bold, repeating geometric motifs, including interconnected hexagonal and diamond shapes with latch-hook designs, typical of tribal weavings. The use of angular lines is characteristic of rugs made on the simple, portable looms used by nomadic people. Colors: The rug uses a deep and varied color palette, including dark green, red, navy blue, light blue, and beige accents. These colors are often derived from natural vegetable dyes and carry cultural symbolism. Construction: Authentic examples of this style are hand-knotted, often using hand-spun wool for the pile and a wool or cotton foundation. The fringe is typically an integral extension of the rug's warp threads, not a sewn-on addition. Size is on the picture. Excellent condition. Recently cleaned by professional rug cleaning service.
