This rug is perfect for anyone looking to add a touch of vintage charm to their rooms. The classical design, and rich autumn colours in this rug perfectly capture the aesthetic of the worlds most renowned antique Persian pieces.
Produced in India using delicately hand spun wool, natural dyes and hand-knotted by highly skilled rug weavers.
The inspiration for the design comes from antique Sultanabad Ziegler rugs. Sultanabad rugs were originally weaved in Arak, a city in the north west of Iran. The traditional floral patterns were later adopted and modified slightly by Ziegler & Co. (an English based rug production company) in order to better suit the tastes of western markets. The new designs quickly became popular, and soon Ziegler & Co produced some of the world’s most sought after rugs and carpets.
The bold floral pattern used in this rug is coloured using soft shades of blues, greens, reds and yellows. The light cream background colour helps to show off the beauty of the all-over floral design. The warm terracotta border is beautifully detailed with additional floral motifs, and ornately frames the inner design.
