Description

A wonderful antique Ziegler carpet with a rare palette and in particular this light grey to blue toned background, stunning lime greens and pinks have been used for the floral pattern.  The border is light pink and has some warmer reds and greens.  Woven around 1890-1900 this is a delightful and rare Ziegler carpet in a longer narrow shape, in great condition with a soft wool pile.

Ziegler & co workshop carpets have always been revered and desired by collectors and designers alike.  Ziegler rugs developed an almost immediate following in the late 19th Century, especially among early collectors which included the Guinness family, who laid them in Elveden Hall, their Suffolk estate. Ziegler carpets are one of the only types of Persian carpet which were influenced by western designs and have become one of the most sought after carpets in the world today.

Ziegler carpets were originally produced in the late 19th century by the Swiss firm Ziegler & Co., designed specifically to suit Western interior tastes by softening traditional Persian motifs and colour palettes.

Authentic pieces are traditionally crafted from hand-spun wool pile knotted onto a cotton foundation, utilizing natural vegetable dyes for coloration.

Authentication involves examining the hand-knotted structure, natural dye variations, soft muted colour palettes characteristic of the firms export designs, and the quality of the wool.

These carpets complement contemporary spaces by adding texture and historical contrast beneath clean-lined modern furniture, often anchoring neutral seating arrangements.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without rotating brushes, professional specialist cleaning, and avoiding direct prolonged exposure to intense sunlight to protect the dyes.
