Antique Ziegler Sultanabad Persian Square Rug, Floral Medallion - Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Made with hand-knotted wool circa 1880-1890, this 11x11 antique Persian rug is a rare Sultanabad rug of the Ziegler Company—a particularly celebrated provenance, marking an exciting new curation from Rug & Kilim. On the Design: Admirers of the craft will note this late 19th century piece is an exemplar of the many beauties that distinguish Ziegler rugs, such as its versatile square size and scale of pattern and soft colors like those seen here. In this piece, a beige-brown field underscores a central floral medallion surrounded by large palmette florals in gold, orange, and cream tones. The borders draw on a contrasting palette with navy blue tones and colors from the field in the floral scrolls therein. It’s that rare, fine balance between the grand sense of detail and still so approachable, comfortable sensibility that perhaps stands out among the many beauties in this rug as those of a masterpiece—an extremely collectible work of art for both connoisseur and designer alike. Condition: This antique Ziegler rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
