About the Item
78957 Vintage Persian Bijar Rug Runner, 03'00 x 13'05. This hand-knotted wool Persian Bijar rug runner is a magnificent example of traditional Persian craftsmanship, renowned for its durability and elaborate artistry. Often referred to as the 'Iron Rug of Persia,' Bijar rugs are celebrated for their tightly packed knots and dense, resilient foundation, making them perfect for high-traffic areas. The deep red field, a signature of Bijar weavers, is adorned with repeating Herati motifs, one of the most iconic and enduring designs in Persian rug history. The Herati motif, featuring a central rosette flanked by curling leaves or fish forms, represents water, life, and fertility—symbols deeply rooted in Persian culture. This timeless design has been used for centuries to reflect the interconnectedness of nature and the human experience. Within this Bijar rug runner, the Herati motifs are meticulously woven into the intricate diamond medallions, their delicate symmetry harmonizing with the rug's overall aesthetic and evoking a sense of continuous movement and flow.
The Persian Bijar rug’s hooked hexagonal medallions, alternating between shades of ivory and navy blue, create a sense of visual rhythm and balance. These medallions are also filled with the traditional Herati motif, echoing the same pattern that flows throughout the field of the rug. The field, densely packed with these Herati motifs, creates a harmonious and unified design that showcases the meticulous craftsmanship of the Bijar weavers. The repetition of these motifs across the field adds to the rug’s sense of rhythm and order, drawing the eye across the length of the runner. This ornamental pattern, paired with the medallions, enhances the rug’s rich, layered aesthetic, making it a visually striking and balanced composition. Such detailing showcases the artistic precision that goes into each knot, transforming this runner into a piece of woven art that captivates the eye and commands attention.
Surrounding the main field is a stunning turtle vine scroll border, embellished with a variety of floral and arabesque motifs, adding depth and contrast to the Persian carpet runner's overall design. The ivory carnation meander guard border encloses the main border beautifully, allowing the vibrant colors and patterns to shine. This combination of bold colors, refined patterns, and harmonious composition is a hallmark of Bijar rugs, often sought after for their elegance and timeless appeal in both traditional and modern interiors.
Whether placed in a stately hallway or welcoming guests in a grand entryway, this vintage Persian Bijar rug runner brings an air of Persian royalty and heritage to any space. Its luxurious wool pile is not only soft underfoot but also speaks to the time-honored tradition of Persian rug making, a practice passed down through generations. This piece stands as a testament to the Bijar weavers' mastery, providing not just function but an enduring legacy of art and craftsmanship.
