Farnham Antique Carpets has dated this Antique Ziegler Persian Rug to the 1890s.
The large scale floral design is beautifully proportioned and has great symmetry. Woven around 1890 these natural dyes are really exquisite and from one of the best weaving workshops in the 19th century.
Condition is very good indeed, only small areas of old restoration which we would often expect on carpets over 130 years old. We always supply a tough anti-slip underlay which adds body and stops the carpet from moving on any floor type.

In 1883, Ziegler and Co, of Manchester, England established a Persian carpet manufacture in Sultanabad Persia, which employed designers from major western department stores such as B. Altman & Co of New York and Liberty, to modify 16th- and 17th-century Eastern designs for the more restrained western taste. Using highly developed dying techniques, and the best artisans from the region, the Ziegler Co created rugs with beautiful, all-over patterns and with softer palettes than their vibrant Persian counterparts.
