Gorgeous Garrous - 1870s Antique Bijar Rug - Persian Kurdish Carpet
Size: 11.9 x 15 ft.

The Bijar is a heavy durable rug that has been very popular in the United States. Most Bijar carpets are woven by Kurds in the Garrous area while some British rug merchants have claimed that the finest Bijar carpets are woven by Afshar weavers who live in the Tekab and Tekkenteppe Area in Gerus.

It is important to remember that Garrous and Bijar are both names for a Kurdish people and the language that they speak. The Gerusi/Bijari people are ethnically Kurdish but are of the Central Kurdish group and are ethnically and linguistically distinct from their Eastern Kurdish neighbors.

Good condition! No stains, no odor. Sides and ends original. Contains medium-low pile. Some prior restoration, professionally performed. As shown in pictures.
