A truly stunning and remarkable early production antique Ziegler carpet woven in Sultanabad, Persia - dating from 1883 to 1890 with a rare golden yellow background. The design is breathtakingly beautiful, well proportioned and with exquisite scrolling vines and floral motifs, and lovely symmetry too. The 130 year old colour palette has faded yet retained amazing colour, with sage greens, teal pale blues and deep reds and indigo blues.
This Ziegler is undoubtedly one of the best we have seen in 30 years, the scale of drawing and dyes are majestic and exactly what is looked for in the best Ziegler & Co workshop carpets. A rare and outstanding example in excellent original order. Very minimal wear, the majority of the carpet has a good soft pile. Professionally washed and small preservation has been done by ourselves to maintain its beauty.
Please request a home visit to view this rare golden yellow antique Ziegler carpet at home, you can select a convenient day and time for us to visit you. We travel all over the UK helping customers and interior designers.
