Description

From the apex of decorate carpet weaving in 19th century North West Persia comes this highly artistic Fereghan carpet in full pile. A stunning jewel of a carpet that harks back to the classical period with the movement in the design of the floral vines and interconnecting flowerheads. There are echoes of the 16th century Vase technique in the drawing of the flowerheads and the colours are not only very unusual but beautifully coordinated. The orange red border has dashes of sky blue that seem to leap out from the rug, as if it was electrified. Stunning colours that would be normally found in a tribal weaving rather than a cottage industry piece like this. Absolutely fabulous and in stunning, original condition. This unique carpet will transform your room and the way you live!

11'0" x 13'2"

Date of Manufacture

James Cohen Antique Carpets has dated this Antique Fereghan Ziegler Carpet to the 1870s.

Fereghan Ziegler carpets are 19th-century Persian rugs produced for Western markets, characterised by softer palettes, all-over floral patterns, and large open fields compared to traditional classical Persian designs.

These carpets are traditionally hand-knotted using hand-spun wool on cotton foundations, often dyed with natural vegetable colorants such as madder root and indigo.

Authentication involves examining the knot density, irregularities in hand-spun wool, natural dye variations, wear patterns on the pile, and the construction of the selvages and fringing.

Large antique carpets anchor modern living spaces by introducing texture, heritage, and grounding warmth, pairing effectively with minimalist furniture and neutral walls to let the pattern take centre stage.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional washing by a textile conservator every few years, rotation to ensure even wear, and protection from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
