5’10” x 8’5″ Antique Halvai Bidjar Rug, Kurdistan Province, Northwest Persia, Circa 1890
A fine antique Bidjar rug of very uncommon size. The navy blue field is decorated with red and ivory medallion and stylized floral motifs in a geometric style that suggests the rug is on the early side. Ivory corner spandrels and a brick red “Turtle” design border frame the field. The plain, variegated mid blue band between the field and the borders is a beautiful feature.
