Perhaps the most durable rug on earth, known to auctioneers as 'the carpet of steel', the unique Bidjar does more than look attractive. These indestructible rugs are woven by tough Kurdish people in the north-western town of Bidjar. Rich jewel tones in simple geometry, thick pile, structural strength and enormous weight mark the Bidjar. They are often imitated but never duplicated, because no other region uses the wet-loom technique adopted by the weavers of this city. This means constantly keeping wet the wool, warp, and weft during the long process of weaving, and beating down rows of weft with a comb at frequent intervals. The materials therefore tighten and shrink slightly when the rug is dried, making the piece extremely dense and strong. The Bidjars can have an all-over field, but more often a series of expanding hexagonal diamond medallions is seen. The friendly, peaceful people of Bidjar have earned one of the richest reputations in all of Asia for their highly prized carpets. Bidjars not only go well with modern or traditional interiors, but because of their incredible durability, these rugs are ideal for high-traffic areas such as a main entrances, corridors or kitchens. |

Among the finest handmade carpets ever made, Isfahan rugs are the pinnacle of the Persian carpet. In an enchanted city, renowned for its taste and finesse, these carpets are of great delicacy and utmost intricacy. The city of Isfahan holds pride of place in the Persian rug industry because of its rich history and reputation dating back to the 16th century. Most Isfahan carpets are finely detailed in wool and silk, often on a base of pure silk. Until the middle of the 20th century colors were mostly stronger, like bold reds and blues on the ubiquitous beige. But later comes the visible influence of the international Designer, with more subdued ranges of subtler colors. Still, at the sight of curvilinear vines snaking over an elegant field around an exquisite medallion, especially if the long fringes glisten silkily from magnificent borders, the word 'Isfahan' tends to spring to one's lips. Patterns include pictorial and tree-of-life schemes, as well as the Shah Abbas field with its floral vines. |
