Large Antique Ziegler Mahal Carpet, 19th Century

About the Item

Large Oversized Antique Ziegler Mahal Carpet, 19th Century Woven in central Persia as fine export pieces specifically for the European market during the late nineteenth century, Ziegler carpets are some of the most graceful weavings of the period. This distinctive, antique oversized carpet elegantly adapts a directional format more typically associated with smaller Persian prayer rugs and meditation carpets. A solitary lamp hangs from a niched portico suspended against a refined modulated terracotta field. Traditional stylized plants are drawn in a row along the bottom while related forms may be found within the slate-blue main border. An ivory counter-niche at the bottom beautifully balances the composition. Additional Information: Dimensions: 13'4" W x 17'0" L Origin: Persia Period: 19th Century (4th Quarter) Rug ID: 12373
