Persian Bidjar Rug 8x15 Navy Blue Herati Pattern Antique Collectors

Add grandeur and history to your home with this Antique Persian Bidjar Rug, measuring 8' x 15'. Hand-knotted in the early 20th century, this oversized piece features a densely woven Herati pattern in rich navy blue with accents of rust, ivory, and soft greens. The wool pile is deeply saturated and tightly packed, giving the rug its famed durability and visual depth—ideal for formal living spaces or large-scale interiors.

About Persian Bidjar Rugs

Bidjar rugs hail from the Kurdish weaving tradition of northwest Iran and are revered for their unmatched strength and resilience. Known as the “Iron Rugs of Persia,” Bidjars are woven using a unique technique that compresses the wool fibers into an exceptionally dense pile. This results in rugs that resist wear and retain their shape over generations. The Herati motif—a hallmark of many Bidjar carpets—consists of stylized fish and rosettes arranged in intricate, repeating patterns that convey order and elegance.

Unique Characteristics of this Bidjar Rug

This particular Bidjar stands out for its impressive 8x15 format, a size rarely found in antique pieces of this caliber. The saturated navy field contrasted with an elaborate rust border creates a powerful visual frame, while the finely rendered Herati design displays precision and balance at approximately 170 knots per square inch. A true collector’s item, this rug combines scale, craftsmanship, and condition in a way few Bidjars do.
