Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Ziegler & Co was an Anglo-Swiss company established in Manchester that commissioned carpets in the Sultanabad region of Persia during the late nineteenth century. These carpets were designed specifically for Western export, adapting traditional Persian motifs to suit European interior tastes and room scales.

Authentic Ziegler carpets are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a cotton warp and weft foundation. They traditionally utilise vegetable-based dyes, which yield muted, softer tones compared to standard regional weaves.

Authentic Ziegler carpets typically feature oversized floral palmettes and scrollwork on an open, uncluttered central field, lacking a central medallion. The weave is slightly coarser than urban Persian carpets, and the colour palette leans toward soft terracotta, slate blue, ivory, and faded gold.

The soft, subtle tones and spacious patterns of Ziegler carpets allow them to anchor traditional period rooms as well as contemporary minimalist spaces. They pair exceptionally well with warm timber furniture, neutral upholstery, and architectural antiques.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating brush to protect the hand-knotted pile. Rotate the carpet periodically to ensure even wear and light exposure, and rely on professional rug restorers for spot cleaning or wash treatments.
