Every detail of the Bidjar carpet carries the deepest traditions of Iranian craftsmanship and nomadic culture. Owning a Persian rug like this is more than a simple decorative item; it is a work of art, made with centuries-old techniques and meticulous care. It is not only the quality, but also the longevity and historical significance of nomadic rugs that make Bidjar rugs so attractive to customers. The exceptional durability and resistance of Bidjar rugs stand out in the Persian carpet market. Also known as 'iron carpets', they are not only aesthetically pleasing but also unbeatable in terms of functionality. Each carpet is made from carefully selected 'Kurdish wool', which ensures longevity and a natural brilliance of colour that will not fade over time, but will become even more vibrant. Due to the handicraft tradition, the rugs are tightly woven, thanks to the "wet weaving" technique, the fibres are densely spaced, so that these rugs can withstand intensive use (wet weaving technique: in the wet weaving technique, the wool is dampened during weaving and then pressed down with an iron tool). The wet wool shrinks as it dries, making the carpet very compact and strong.) Bidjar carpets have a knot density of 250,000 - 300,000 knots per square metre. An Iranian rug such as Bidjar is not only a stylish home accessory, but also an investment that can be passed down for generations. The Persian carpet market is recognised worldwide, and the place of the Bidjar carpet in this market is outstanding. For those who want to bring traditional Iranian culture and craftsmanship into their homes, Bidjar rugs are one of the best choices. It is not just a Persian rug, but a precious treasure that is a worthy addition to any home. The history and origin of the Bidjar carpet also adds to its value. The city of Bidjar in Iranian Kurdistan has been making these carpets for centuries. The 'Turkish knotting technique' used by Kurdish craftsmen ensures the longevity and richness of detail of the carpets. The tight knotting allows the designs to be rich in detail, bringing geometric and floral motifs to life on the surface of the rugs. An Iranian rug is always a good choice if you are looking for a unique, valuable and timeless piece of home décor, but the Bidjar rug goes beyond that. Not only is the carpet elegant and sophisticated, but it has the durability to look as beautiful decades from now as it did when it was first laid in your home.

Origin and history of the Bidjar carpet

The origins of Bidjar carpets are linked to the city of Bidjar in the Kurdistan region of Iran, which has been the centre of handmade Persian carpets for centuries. The city is known worldwide for its special rugs, which are renowned for their exceptional durability. The inhabitants of the region, especially the Kurds, have passed on the carpet-making traditions for generations, which still define the quality and uniqueness of Bidjar carpets. The history of Bidjar carpets is closely intertwined with the rich cultural heritage of Persia, particularly the carpet-making renaissance of the 18th and 19th centuries. During this period, the carpets were not only sold in local markets, but also found their way to many major cities in Europe and Asia, where they were soon recognised by Persian carpet enthusiasts. The uniqueness of Bidjar carpets lies not only in their artistic design, but also in their weaving technique, which sets them apart from other Persian carpets.

The use of materials in Bijar nomadic carpets

One of the fundamental elements that make nomadic carpets special is the use of materials, which contributes significantly to their durability and quality. Traditionally, Bidjar rugs are made from high quality wool, carefully selected from the region. The wool is tightly twisted and this, combined with the weaving technique, gives the carpets exceptional durability, ensuring that they retain their beauty and functionality for decades. The raw material for the carpets, called "Kurdish wool," is extremely soft yet strong. Natural vegetable dyes are used for the dyeing, which do not fade over time, but develop a beautiful patina. This treatment with natural dyes not only provides aesthetic benefits, but also increases resistance to environmental influences.

Bidjar rug making and weaving techniques

Bidjar rugs are famous for their special and unique weaving technique, which sets them apart from other Persian rugs. One of the best known techniques is the 'wet weaving' method, which involves continuously wetting the carpet during the knotting process. This method allows the wool fibres to knot tighter, making the carpet incredibly dense and durable. This is why Bidjar carpets are also known as "iron carpets". Traditionally, Bidjar carpets are hand-knotted using the Turkish knotting technique (symmetrical knotting). The density of the knots is usually high, which further increases the durability of the carpets. Dense knotting also allows for the creation of detailed patterns, often decorated with geometric or floral motifs. Traditionally, deep, rich colours such as red, blue, green and brown are used.
