What is an Oriental Rug?

Oriental rugs are hand-knotted carpets from legendary weaving centres in Persia, Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, China, the Caucasus and Turkey. They are known for their extraordinary variety of patterns, symbols, colours and weaving traditions. Whether classic, tribal, floral or modern reinterpretations, Oriental rugs represent centuries-old craftsmanship, premium materials, and lasting home value.

Origin, Features & Design of Ziegler Rugs

Provenance: Hand-knotted in select ateliers in western Afghanistan and northern Pakistan, inspired by the classic Ziegler carpets of the 19th century.
Materials: Premium hand-spun sheep’s wool for the pile, typically with a cotton warp; known for their soft feel and subtle sheen created by gentle washing techniques.
Knotting Technique: Fine, dense knotting using predominantly symmetric knots; 90,000–400,000 knots/m², enriched with traditional finishing methods.
Patterns: Large-scale floral ornaments, stylized blossoms, winding vines and decorative borders—blending Persian and European design roots.
Colours: Subtly muted natural tones like cream, beige, pale blue, rose, grey and delicate reds—often with “antique wash” for an authentic vintage look.
Sizes: Available in spacious rectangular living room sizes, runners, and custom formats—highly versatile and especially popular in modern interiors.

Afghan & Pakistani Rugs – Artisanal Diversity with a Future

Afghan and Pakistani weaving houses are today leading the way in the production of Ziegler Oriental rugs. They embrace and evolve classic Ziegler designs, and hold the highest standards for materials, colours, and attention to detail. Modern Designer Ziegler pieces are also produced primarily in these countries, impressing with innovatively reinterpreted ornamentation and nature-inspired palettes. This makes the Ziegler rug a lively link between Orient, craft, and contemporary interior style.
