About Bijar Rugs

Bijar rugs are woven by Kurdish weavers in northwest Persia and are famously known as the "iron rugs of Persia" for their exceptional density and weight. Tightly hand-knotted and remarkably durable, they often display the classic Herati pattern in deep reds and blues. This sturdiness, paired with bold tribal-influenced design, makes Bijar carpets both beautiful and built to last for generations. Antique examples are highly collectible and well suited to rooms that see daily life.

Its size makes it a natural fit for a bedroom, home office, or reading nook, and its hand-knotted construction means the wear pattern, pile, and coloration are entirely its own rather than repeated from a production run. First Rugs recommends a professional wool-safe cleaning every one to three years to protect the investment and keep the colors true.
