Afghan Ziegler Rug
Afghan Ziegler
Afghan Ziegler rugs are a type of hand-knotted decorative carpet that originate from Afghanistan. These rugs are known for their unique designs, colors, and high-quality craftsmanship. Here are some key characteristics and aspects of Afghan Ziegler rugs:
Afghan Ziegler rugs often feature large, geometric designs and floral motifs. The patterns are more subdued compared to traditional Persian rugs, making them popular for contemporary and traditional interiors alike.
The colour palette typically includes soft, earthy tones such as terracotta, beige, rust, and muted greens and blues. The dyes used are often natural, contributing to the overall aesthetic and feel of these rugs.
These rugs are primarily made from sheep wool, which is known for its durability and softness. Some rugs may also incorporate cotton or silk for added texture.
Afghan Ziegler rugs are hand-knotted using traditional methods. The knotting could be Turkish (Ghiordes) or Persian (Senneh), which affects the density and texture of the rug.
The Ziegler & Co. company was founded in the late 1800s in the city of Sultanabad, Iran, and was instrumental in producing rugs that appealed to Western tastes. The company focused on larger sizes and less intricate patterns, making the rugs more accessible for Western markets.
Today, Afghan Ziegler rugs continue to be crafted by various manufacturers in Afghanistan. While they maintain the traditional aesthetics, modern iterations may incorporate different designs and colours to meet current design trends.
Afghan Ziegler rugs are versatile and can be used in various settings, from living rooms and bedrooms to offices and commercial spaces. Their elegant designs and colours make them suitable for both classic and modern décor.
Like all handmade rugs, proper care and maintenance are essential to ensure their longevity. Regular vacuuming, spot cleaning, and professional cleaning as needed are recommended to keep the rugs in good condition.
