This antique Persian Ziegler Mahal Sultanabad rug comes with a lot of history. The carpet industry in Iran was mostly driven by European firms. During the late 19th century, 1883, the Manchester, England, based Anglo-Swiss firm of Ziegler and Co. established a factory whose sole objective was to produce Sultanabad Rugs to meet western demands. Western designers modified classical Persian designs, marking the first time westerners directly affected Persian designs (beyond influence through market demand). In step with the beginning of the Arts & Crafts movement, Ziegler modified designs to be larger size, along with a larger rug size to suit western room specifications. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Date: 1880-1889, late 19th century. Measures: 13'07 x 19'09.
