FAQs

A Bidjar Kelleh is a category of Persian carpet originating from the town of Bidjar in northwestern Iran, woven in a long, wide format known as a kelleh. These textiles are historically distinguished by an exceptionally dense weave, heavy structure, and high knot count.

Traditional Bidjar rugs are constructed using a wool pile knotted onto a cotton or wool foundation. Double-wefted construction pressed tightly with heavy iron tools creates their characteristic rigid feel and durability.

Authentic antique Bidjar carpets feature an extremely firm, heavy foundation that resists folding, combined with deep pile density and saturated dyes. Typical designs incorporate repeating Herati or floral motifs framed by complex multi-band borders.

A long kelleh rug serves to anchor wide hallways, entrance halls, or open-plan living areas. Placing rich geometric patterns against neutral timber flooring or alongside modern minimalist furnishings provides visual structure and contrast.

Regular maintenance requires suction-only vacuuming without a rotating brush to prevent pile degradation. Professional specialist cleaning is recommended for deep dirt removal, alongside a high-grade rug underlay to reduce friction and wear.
