Bijar, derived from a small Kurdish town in western Iran, has a long history of rug weaving. These rugs, known for their durability and longevity, have garnered popularity, particularly in the United States. While traditional Bijar rugs were heavy and thick, modern variations tend to be finer and thinner, resembling Sarouk rugs.

Most Bijar Kurdish carpets are woven by Gerrus Kurds in the Bijar area, but you can also find finer copies woven by Afshar weavers from the Tekab and Tekkenteppe area in Gerus.
