Kurd Bidjar

Combining the thick compact structure of a Bijar with the aesthetic of fine traditional Persian textile of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, this runner melds the best of both worlds. Diagonal stripes in an alternating rainbow of colors are punctuated by small equally colorful flowering plants. Narrow borders combine floral vine-scrolls with more abstract geometric motifs favored by the Kurdish weavers of the region. This is a village runner compatible with both formal and tribal tastes.
