Antique Persian Bijar Carpet with Traditional Style

About the Item

78281 Antique Persian Bijar runner 3'08 x 18'03. A singular statement of cultivated rarity, this one-of-a-kind hand-knotted wool antique Persian Bijar runner is not merely a floor covering—it is an investment in legacy, symbolism, and elevated distinction. Sourced from the storied looms of northwest Persia, this masterpiece offers the refined collector an opportunity to own a piece of tribal artistry steeped in cultural prestige. Every knot is a stroke of intention, every motif a whisper of ancestral memory. In a world saturated by the ephemeral, this runner stands apart—a bespoke artifact reserved for those who prize permanence, provenance, and purpose. Its abrashed red field, textured like sun-washed clay walls of an ancient citadel, reveals an intricate all-over botanical lattice—a visual dialogue between nature’s order and the spontaneity of tribal expression. Each floral element, rendered in meticulous detail, is a living emblem of abundance, growth, and sacred geometry, passed down through generations. The lattice does not merely fill space; it weaves symbolic meaning into every step, allowing those who walk upon it to trace the legacy of Persian village craftsmanship. This runner is not designed for the masses—it is an heirloom crafted for visionaries who understand that style is most powerful when it tells a story. Framing this lush interior garden is a stately angular floral meander border, executed with the calculated elegance of a master calligrapher’s flourish. The bold angularity of the border juxtaposes the botanical field, striking a deliberate balance between geometry and organic beauty. Flanked by inner and outer guard bands, each delicately composed, the border creates an intentional sense of rhythm—a protective enclosure that reflects the rug’s deeper spiritual symbolism. Here, decoration becomes architecture; ornament becomes meaning. To own this exquisite Bijar runner is to participate in the noble act of cultural guardianship, to choose artistry over mass production, and to celebrate the slow luxury of handwoven perfection. Whether displayed in a gallery-like corridor or a carefully curated interior, it brings with it not only visual prestige but a deeper sense of social good—supporting heritage craft and preserving the voice of a people whose stories are written in wool and dye. This is an object of rare refinement for the collector who curates not just spaces—but legacies. Rendered in variegated shades of red, dark pink, cerulean, green, brown, and navy blue with other accent colors. Abrash. Desirable Age Wear. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 03'08 x 18'03.
