Knot density of oriental carpets
The quality of a carpet is reflected in its fineness, which is defined by the knot density - the number of knots per square metre. This measure is not only an indicator of the precision of the craftsmanship, but also has a significant influence on the overall quality of the carpet. A higher knot density not only allows the creation of complex patterns, but also demonstrates the masterful skill of the craftsmen. The skilful knotting of fine knots creates a rug that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also impresses with its robustness and cultural significance. The knot density of our carpets can be found on the product page under the properties.

The production of a Ziegler carpet
The production of Ziegler carpets begins with the traditional use of pure new wool as the main material. This wool is carefully selected to ensure that it is soft and durable. The wool is then carded to remove impurities and spun into yarns that serve as the basis for the knotting process. The actual knotting is done on specialised looms, and skilled artisans carefully weave the patterns and designs into the carpet base. Ziegler carpets are often characterised by their use of bright colours and floral or geometric patterns. The production of Ziegler carpets is a traditional craft that is often passed down from generation to generation. These rugs are highly regarded for their quality, durability and unique style. They represent a harmonious fusion of oriental carpet tradition and western design influences.
