ORIGIN

Bijar (or Bidjar) Kurdish rugs are often called the Iron Rugs of Iran. The Bijar was a heavy durable rug that has been very popular in the United States. Now the Bijar rug rends to be a finer thinner more Sarouk like rug. Most Bijar Kurdish carpets are woven by Gerrus Kurds in the Bijar area while a finer copy of Bijar carpets are woven by Afshar weavers who live in the Tekab and Tekkenteppe Area in Gerus. Bijar is a town in North-West Iran approximately 45 km from Senneh (Sanandaj) Nowadays, the Bidjar carpets made in Iran can be put into the following three main categories:

Traditional Bidjars, f.i. Bidjars with rose motifs. Halvai and Tahjavi-Bidjars. Afshar Bidjars
