Ziegler
The British Swiss company Ziegler began to have this type of oriental carpet knotted in Iran around 1870 in order to supply the European market of the time with hand-knotted oriental carpets. At that time, the company set up its own production facility for this purpose. Floral ornaments in an antique look have characterised the designs ever since. Today, production of this type of oriental carpet has moved from Iran to the Pakistani/Afghan border region of Peshawar. Just like Kazak oriental carpets, the oriental carpets are transported by truck to Karachi/Pakistan after production because Afghanistan does not have a port. From Karachi, Ziegler oriental carpets are exported all over the world.
Hand-knotted
This carpet is made by skilled craftsmen on looms, with each knot being tied individually. The production of Ziegler carpets spans various regions including Lahore, Karachi, Peshawar and other cities known for their carpet manufacturing. Pakistan has a rich tradition of carpet production and is recognised worldwide for the quality and beauty of its handmade carpets. The price and durability of a carpet are significantly influenced by the quality of the materials used. Weaving a handmade oriental rug is a demanding and time-consuming art that has been perfected by generations of carpet weavers.
Handspun wool
This rug is made from hand-spun sheep's wool. The use of this material makes it an environmentally friendly choice, as no chemical treatments or additives are required. Thanks to their natural fats, these rugs are particularly hard-wearing and resistant to water and dirt. The pleasant feel of carpets made from hand-spun sheep's wool helps to create a cosy atmosphere in a room.
Carpet care
To maintain the appearance of the carpet, regular vacuuming with a gentle hoover is recommended to remove dust and dirt from the fibres. Stains should be gently dabbed immediately with a clean, white cloth dampened with cold water to prevent damage. In addition, rotating the carpet regularly will help to promote even wear and prolong its life.
