About the Item
Stunning room size Persian Bidjar rug with an all-over repetitive willow tree motif
Measures: 8'4'' x 12'5''
Bidjar rugs, produced in Northwest Iran are among the finest of Persian rugs by Virtue of their design and technique. They cannot be identified readily by their patterns, for their repertoire is quite rich and varied. They are distinguished by primarily by their weave, which is perhaps the densest and most durable of all oriental rugs. Bidjar carpets were produced in a classical medallion format as well as in all-over designs and pictorial or garden patterns. The quality of their wool is lustrous and soft, the drawing at times classically precise or wildly tribal. Some are attributable to Kurdish weavers living in the Bidjar region.
Known for producing some of the most important Persian rugs, Bijar rug weavers have perfected a style of rug weaving that results in what are called “Iron Rugs.” Bidder weavers are also responsible for the so-called “Man’s Rug.”
Geography plays a tremendous role in the history of the production of antique rugs from Bidjar.

- Rare Collector's Willow Tree of Life Antique Persian Heriz Northwest Village RugLocated in Milwaukee, WIRare Collector's Willow tree of life antique Persian Heriz Northwest Village rug, C. 1915 Salmon & coral with ice blues and teals About: Antique Persian Heriz in an unbelievably unique design. C. 1915, of all the Northwest pieces - the Weeping Willow Tree of Life design was woven so sparingly; maybe less than 1% of all pieces that came out of the Northwest had this design. You will find this design from other villages, but unlike most symmetrical designs, these designs added a sense of artisanal flair as weaving them ""for the market"" and industry for commerce was a bit of a risk. Most people wanted the standard Medallion design, and if the weavers were weaving non-medallion designs, aka "all-over" designs, it was very seldomly a directional Forest of Life design like this one. I will write more about this piece later, but just know that this is a very, very special carpet with the rare salmon ground (usually they would weave red rugs, or even ivory or navy), and the condition of this piece is spectacular. Just some wear throughout, no holes or anything like that. Not even any re-weaving which would be ok for a piece of this age. Pastel Green with inverse Camel-colored Mountain range in the perimeter, Icy blues with French and Navy blue Tree branches and Tree trunks shifting from small dye batch to small dye batch. Bakshayesh border with jagged leaf and flower-head motif in the border gives us that structure we crave for such an artistic and emotional field design. Probably one of the greatest and counterintuitive things about village rugs is this - back in the day these pieces weren't as sought after, almost looked down upon so the designers and owners of these weaving centers and workshops didn't spend too much time looking over the weavers work - they weren't too concerned with precision and executing perfect drawings and designs - so, in turn it gave the weavers a bit of play, moments to freestyle weave, and allowed them a canvas to imagine, create, and impose their hearts and souls onto the loom...Category
