12210 Garus Bidjar rug Iran / Persia 9.3 x 4.0 ft / 284 x 121 cm vintage
A hand-knotted Persian rug from the 1950s. Very good quality and very good condition, only little wear and patina. Rich red and various shades of blue and cinnamon-colored motifs give this piece a special color harmony. The knotting is medium fine. The pile is very good and dense. Garus Bidjar are not as fine as Bidjar Bukan or Bidjar Tekab, but have excellent wool and a silky shine. That is why Garus Bidjar are also very popular with connoisseurs.
Bidjar rugs from the time of this piece are not comparable to rugs from later production. The old pieces are not so stiff in the handle and have a significantly glossier wool. Usually, old Bidjar are not exactly, as the wooden knotting chairs were always warped under the enormous tension of Bidjar warp threads.
Flor: 100% virgin wool from the Persian highlands
Chain and weft: fine cotton
