Around 1870, the British-Swiss company Ziegler began commissioning this type of Oriental rug in Iran to supply the European market with high-quality hand-knotted rugs. Their characteristic floral ornaments in an antique style still give Ziegler rugs their elegant and timeless expression today. Production has since shifted to the Pakistani-Afghan border region around Peshawar. After completion, the rugs are brought into international trade via Karachi and exported worldwide.
Experienced artisans create every single knot on traditional looms — a technique that requires exceptional precision and many years of experience. Production extends across Lahore, Karachi and Peshawar, three cities with centuries-old knotting traditions. Fine materials and careful handwork define the durability and value of each piece.
This rug is made from hand-spun wool — without chemical treatments or artificial additives. Thanks to the natural wool fats, the fibre is particularly durable and resistant to water and dirt. Its soft feel creates a warm atmosphere in the room and underlines the rug’s authentic character.
Regular, gentle vacuuming helps preserve the appearance over the long term. Stains should be carefully blotted as soon as possible with a clean white cloth and cold water. Occasionally rotating the rug promotes even wear and can significantly extend its lifespan.
