Bijar
An important centre of rug production in northwest Iran which is inhabited by a Kurdish population. Antique Bidjar rugs which were woven on wool foundation had three wefts between every row of knots. This made the rugs extremely heavy, stiff and almost impossible to fold. Contemporary Bidjar rugs are usually double wefted and are woven on a cotton foundation.
