Antique Bijar Rug

:: Highly ornamented, well balanced, and harmonious weave! Diminutive center medallion in diamond/hexagonal shape with end finials in a rams horn / samovar stylized contour. Allover covered field in a classic Herati motif, although some outline colors likely synthetic dyes (namely the brighter red top colors), the ground color red and blues are particularly vivid and true. Colors and shades include: Cherry red, ivory, navy blue, denim blue, blush, antique ivory, sky blue, powder blue, light saffron yellow and more. Condition notes: Mostly even wear across to knot heads. Professional restoration to one edge and one corner. Fully secured sides and ends. Light run of early fuchsine red. Some light uneven tension closer to one end as seen in photos which will likely reduce over time with natural use, wear, and proper pad, although priced according to current state. Recently professionally cleaned ready for in-home use! Many years of enjoyment to come with this hand knotted Persian Bijar rug...

:: Triple column nuanced floral top views and pomegranate stylized minor medallions in a partial Veramin design motif. Wrapped by main border in sharp serrated leaves, minor germinating trefoil plants, and floral blossoms throughout. Phenomenal nuanced carpet with artistic merit found throughout in an early example not intended for export markets in the last quarter of the 19th century. All shades in gem tones of red and blue and earthen shades are all quite vivid and naturally derived. Colors and shades include: Brick red, cherry red, charcoal, chocolate brown, dusty rose pink, sapphire blue, ruby red, pale saffron yellow, burgundy wine red, copper, and more. Condition notes: Areas of pile, knot heads and foundation. Most of the original side cord selvages are intact or restored. Fully secured sides and ends. Some coarse hand overwrapped selvages. Several localized areas, approximately three by five inches to five by five inches of possible touch-ups and markering, mostly found within the dark border field, otherwise etched from mordants and dyes over time. Minor contouring consistent with rugs this type and age that are woven on a wooden loom with some areas of the width 3'7" compared to cited 3'10" within normal margins.

:: Allover covered field of a staggered Herati design motif with excellent contrast, geometric contour, and brilliant gem-like shade throughout, all likely in naturally derived form. Colors and shades include: Ruby red grapefruit, deep blush, bright saffron yellow, sapphire blue, forest green, burgundy wine red, black cherry red, chocolate brown, aubergine, powder blue, and more. Condition notes: Areas of high and low pile height. Most of the original side cord selvages are intact or restored. Mostly secure sides and ends. Localized areas of recess to darker shades based on mordents. Side cord selvages could use a refresh at an additional cost. One area of localized tatter to the plain weave on one end. One or two small dull areas approximately two by four inches with light paraffin embedded in the pile. Recently professionally cleaned ready for in-home use!
