Persian Rugs: Weaving in Birjand
Los Angeles Home of Rugs on Nov 5th 2021
The finest rugs of Khorasan come from the Birjand region; the designs that are most preferred by the weavers of this region are Harati (bee fish) and Botteh.
Orange-red, used with a contrasting blue are characteristic shades of Birjand rugs. Beige is often used as a ground color of the field.
Birjand rugs are woven in the Persian Knot. Unfortunately, fraudulent knots can be found in Birjand workshops very often.
