Originality coupled with the highest technical quality is how one expert describes the rugs called Bidjar. This originality results from a tradition of village production combining the best elements of floral and geometric design. Individual weavers of the Bidjar create rugs of uncommon beauty and durability. This bold, yet graceful hybrid is a carpet that is equally appropriate in a weekend retreat as it is in a city apartment. The Bidjar is the ideal choice for the active home. Its strength and vibrant energy will convey a warm, energetic welcome to family and friends alike.
The Bidjar is characterized by design themes that are bold, yet graceful. Many rugs have a central medallion motif and triangular corners separated by a well-defined field. The field may contain a latticework of small, repetitive forms calls Herati. One identifying characteristic of the Bidjar design is its use of bold outlining between the design elements in the carpet. The medallions are typically outlined with a broad band of light colour. Borders usually have three stripes outlining geometric forms or, more often, undulating vines and pendant leaves.
Colour defines the Bidjar. The colours in the rug are, more often then not, masses of contrasting hues brought into harmony with an unerring sense of balance. The rugs resonate with lustrous reds, blues, ivories, greens with contemporary shades of yellow, light blue rose, and chocolate. The creative use of colour enhances the sense of strength and power of the Bidjar designs.
The Bidjar is also a famously well-made rug, notable for its durability. The foundation of the rug contains a weft of double thickness giving the rug an added strength. Bidjar weavers use a

Choosing the right rug can add warmth, comfort and character to your room. Consider the size, material, colour and intended use before making your selection.
Choose a rug that suits the proportions of your room. In a living room, placing at least the front legs of the furniture on the rug helps connect the seating area. For dining rooms, allow enough space for chairs to remain on the rug when pulled out.
Select colours and patterns that complement your furniture and interior. Neutral rugs create a timeless appearance, while stronger colours and detailed patterns can become a focal point.
Low-pile rugs are easier to maintain and are suitable for hallways, dining rooms and other frequently used areas. Higher-pile rugs feel softer underfoot and work well in bedrooms and quieter living spaces.
Wool rugs are durable, naturally insulating and comfortable underfoot. Silk rugs offer finer detailing but require more careful use. Synthetic rugs are generally practical and easy to maintain.
Vacuum regularly using a suitable low-suction setting, rotate the rug periodically and avoid prolonged direct sunlight. Specialist professional cleaning is recommended for handmade wool and silk rugs.
Handmade rugs may contain slight variations in size, shape, colour and pattern. These natural irregularities are part of the rug’s individual character and are not considered faults.
