Antique Sultanabad Rug, Persia, Late 19th Century -This absolutely breathtaking late 19th century antique Ziegler Sultanabad rug is a wonderful example of the rug-making tradition of which it is a part. A handsome field of earthy golden green serves as the backdrop of this splendidly ornate rug, making it not only especially gorgeous, but also distinctively Ziegler. Known the world over for creating beautiful and impressive carpets in the Persian town of Sultanabad, the Ziegler company is noted for having been responsible for the manufacturing of rugs that were suited more to the the taste of European clients.  What makes this carpet so spectacular is its use of green — this is actually rather rare for  antique carpets. Aside from the use of green, the overall grand scale of the piece is indicative of the earlier types much desired in today’s market.
