This is a beautiful vintage Persian Bidjar accent rug, hand-knotted in the 1970's and in mint condition except for its irregular edge on one side.  This geometric floral and medallion design is a hallmark of Bidjar rugs,  a region recognized for its brilliant colors and incredibly detailed designs, along with fine craftsmanship and double knots that make their rugs known as "iron rugs".  This rug is made from fine quality wool and the full dense pile can withstand high traffic and will continue to last for generations.  The intricate geometric floral and vine design revolves around a delicate central flower medallion and small ivory lattice-like motifs throughout the strawberry red background. The flowers and small geometric details are hand-knotted in a wide array of rich colors. Teal, carnation pink, shell pink, spearmint, chartreuse, copper, lavender, sapphire, royal blue, purple, fern green, midnight blue, silver and countless other colors harmonize beautifully in this small rug. The intricacies are dazzling, and all of the colors are made from only vegetable and other natural dyes.  The midnight blue border has its own larger floral and vine pattern in the same beautiful colors, framed by thin ivory rows with tiny colorful floral and vine motifs.  Every inch of the rug is bursting with color and detail.  This rug is slightly irregular because it has a curved edge on one side, making it a great bargain for such a fine quality piece.
