About the Item
Impressive Oversized Luxurious Ivory Antique Persian Ziegler Sultanabad Rug, Country of Origin: Persia, Circa date: 1880 – The city of Sultanabad was once known as Arak and is located in what is now Iran. The region has a long history of carpet weaving, and when it became Sultanabad in 1808, it would soon become known as home to some of the most beautiful tribal rugs in the world. Sultanabad rugs were highly desirable throughout Europe during the Victorian Era. In 1878, Ziegler & Co. saw a golden opportunity that would change the carpet weaving industry of Iran and give it new life.
This Swiss company, based in Manchester, England began commissioning local Sultanabad weavers to create rugs that were better suited to European tastes. These rugs often had more subtle colors than you typically find in tribal rugs. The familiar brightly-colored blues and reds of traditional Sultanabad rugs gave way to ivories and softer colors that were more in line with Victorian tastes at the time.
