This is an exquisite hand-knotted new Persian Bidjar of extremely fine quality in beautiful shades of pink, purple and blue.  This pattern is known as a "fish design", with intricate details in a wide array of rich and vibrant colors, with concentric geometric layers leading to a hexagonal medallion. This rug has a very high double knot count or KPSI (knots per square inch), in which each knot is woven twice.   This makes for an extremely thick, dense weave, which is why rugs like these are known as "iron rugs" that can withstand high traffic and will last generations.  The rug was hand-knotted using fine quality wool and exquisite craftsmanship.  The central medallion begins with an ivory backdrop, which is echoed in the ivory border.  The next layer out from the center is a beautiful shade of pink coral, followed by an inky midnight blue.  Each layer is meticulously covered in exquisite detail with small flowers, curls that look like feathers and are meant to represent fish, and countless other small geometric motifs.  The colors are phenomenal, and become more apparent as you approach the rug, much like a pointillist painting.  There are so many that you can get lost in them - sky blue, rose coral, brilliant sapphire blue, lavender, lilac, dusty rose, silver, charcoal, sky blue, shell pink, deep purple, lilac, teal, olive, lemonade pink and countless others, all made from only natural dyes. The ivory border has an elegant tribal garland of flowers on the vine in many of the rug's colors.  Note how each layer of the rug is divided by thin rows of small flowers on the vine and other repeating tiny motifs.  This is a truly special piece that will elevate any room and will be passed down to future generations.  Size: 3'x4'11"
