Description
Low pile.
This is a well-worn, delicate Antique Ziegler Mahal area rug woven in central Persia during the late nineteenth century, Ziegler carpets are some of the most graceful weavings of the period. This distinctive, antique oversize carpet elegantly adapts a directional format more typically associated with smaller Persian prayer rugs and meditation carpets. A solitary lamp hangs from a niched portico suspended against a refined modulated camel field. Traditional stylized plants are drawn in a row along the bottom while related forms may be found within the ivory main border. An salmon counter-niche at the bottom beautifully balances the composition. Beat. Large tears with simple repairs. Small holes and pile loss throughout. Tears and missing binding along edges. Dye corrosion. Tape on backside running the width. Brittle edges. Frayed/worn ends - See photos for condition details. Colors are camel, ivory, salmon, terracotta, blue and brown.
We recommend the use of a rug pad with this rug, this one is a fine choice.

Rug Care
Rug Care
Vacuum or sweep regularly using the suction only setting, do not use the brush function as it can cause damage. Carpet sweepers are also an effective tool for rug cleaning.
Blot spills immediately using a clean cloth or paper towel. If treated right away the lanolin in the wool will help keep the stain from setting in.
Avoid water (keep your potted plants away!). Water that is left on your rug can cause irreversible damage to you rugs foundation. If your rug gets excessively wet bring it to a professional rug cleaner ASAP.
Use a quality rug pad under the rug to extend its life by preventing stretching, sliding or wrinkling. This rug pad is a fine choice. When choosing a how thick you want to the pad, you might consider where you are placing the rug and how drastic of a “lip” or height change makes sense for the area. You might not mind more of a cushion in a living room or hallway, but might not want so much cushion in higher traffic areas like entry or kitchen. For size, it’s safer to order larger rather than too small, then cut to size. If you have other rugs you might factor in using excess for those.
When to see the pros: Your rug has been professionally cleaned prior to purchase, after that we recommend having the rug professionally cleaned every 5-6 years.
