HALVAI BIJAR (BIDJAR)
Northwest Persian Antique Rug

(Connoisseur-Caliber) Elegant and expertly woven, this antique Persian Halvai Bijar (Bidjar) rug evokes a truly lyric quality, distinguished by a pistachio-hued frame and an exceedingly rare design. This 125-year-old Oriental rug's unique and refined arrangement of curling boughs seemingly overflows from the sumptuously striated watermelon red base. Note how the great articulation and skillfully use of color shading lend a realistic quality to the roses and leaves in the main border (a virtuoso rendition of a prized motif known as Guli Farang ( “Foreign Flower”). (Featured in Claremont catalog Vol. 24, No. 3, page 7.)
