Hand-knotted with premium New Zealand wool, this 6\'2\" x 9\' Herati Bidjar rug showcases a richly detailed traditional geometric pattern supported by a sturdy cotton foundation. The luxurious 0.75-inch wool pile adds depth and softness, while the turquoise and navy lattice is filled with classic Herati motifs—floral, leaf, and diamond elements arranged symmetrically. A vibrant orange border accented with ivory, tan, mint, and multicolored tones mirrors the bold aesthetic of antique Bidjar weaving. This piece is ideal for interiors that value traditional craftsmanship, saturated color, and the visual strength of heritage design.
Story Behind the Art: Hand-knotted rugs represent Pakistan’s second-largest cottage and small-scale industry, with roots that stretch back to the Mughal era of the 11th century. Skilled artisans are capable of producing nearly any rug style, working with classic motifs such as guls, medallions, paisleys (botehs), geometric tracery, and a wide variety of repeating patterns. Pak-Persian rugs in particular are renowned for their extremely fine weave, typically featuring a 16 × 18 knot count that results in approximately 288–300 KPSI. This high density makes them exceptionally durable and suitable for high-traffic interiors. Their production expanded significantly in the 1970s when U.S. trade restrictions on Iran created a demand for Persian-style rugs from alternative sources. Since then, Pakistani weavers have continued to gain admiration for their refined craftsmanship and diverse design repertoire.
