CU-1303 - Antique Persian Ziegler Rug
8ft 01in X 11ft 08in
Circa: 1890
Sultanabad-Mahal-Ziegler Rugs
Originally from Manchester, England, the Ziegler company established itself in Arak (Sultanabad) in 1882 and was active there until the 1920’s, producing almost exclusively room size and larger carpets with large scale allover floral patterns in colors resembling those of Turkish Oushaks of the period: sky blue, rust, pale green, ivory, shrimp, light gold and dark blue. These antique Persian carpets are highly decorative, working extremely well with almost any furnishing theme, always looking opulent without being overbearing or calling undue attention to themselves. The patterns are grand and engaging, there is plenty of open space and the colors are mellow. There are no substitutes for these carpets when a Ziegler (Mahal) is called for.
Vacuum your rug frequently and use a vacuum which uses suction and does not have bristles. If possible, set vacuum to low power setting and vacuum the rug up and down and do not use a back-and-forth motion.
If possible, rotate the rug every few years to allow foot traffic to be spread evenly and shade the rug from direct sunlight to avoid fading in areas.
A rug pad is recommended on all surfaces to prevent slipping and stop marking if on floors with grooves or lines. Professional cleaning is recommended every two or three years.
