Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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 carpets were commissioned starting in the late nineteenth century by Ziegler & Co., a British-Anglo Swiss company operating in Sultanabad, Persia. These carpets were designed specifically for Western markets, featuring larger scale motifs and softer colour palettes than traditional Persian rugs.

Traditional Ziegler carpets are crafted using vegetable-dyed spun wool for the pile, knotted onto a durable cotton warp and weft structure. The use of natural dyes creates characteristic subtle colour variations across the wool yarn.

Authentic pieces are identified by their characteristic design: broad floral palmettes, arabesques, and wide borders with a relatively low knot density compared to city weavers. The colours typically display gentle abrasion and soft tones resulting from natural dye techniques.

Due to their muted tones and open decorative patterns, Ziegler carpets act as neutral anchors in both classic and contemporary spaces. They are often placed beneath large seating groups or dining tables to unify surrounding timber furniture and upholstered pieces.

Regular care requires gentle suction vacuuming without a rotating beater bar to prevent fiber disruption. Spillages should be blotted immediately with clean water, and professional cleaning by an antique textile specialist is recommended every few years.
