Ziegler Oriental Rug: 2.45 X 1.70 Meters - Handmade Wool - "galerie Sardje"

Vintage Chobi Ziegler Afghan Rug, Hand-Knotted: 245 x 170 cm

Description
This vintage Chobi Ziegler Afghan rug is hand-knotted from wool and features a palette of beiges, taupe, and soft reds, delicately faded, arranged around a harmonious botanical motif. Its field is adorned with stylized scrolls and palmettes, rendered in soft, earthy tones, creating a harmonious pattern characteristic of the Chobi/Ziegler workshops. The wool, with its short, smooth pile, accentuates the clarity of the pattern, and the controlled abrash contributes to a naturally aged appearance without disrupting the overall design. The border incorporates repeated floral and geometric motifs that frame the rug with a calm and orderly structure. Professionally cleaned, the rug reveals colors with renewed softness while retaining the authenticity of its handcrafted construction. Its understated color palette and refined design give it a strong decorative presence in many interiors.

Details
This rug reflects the Chobi/Ziegler tradition, developed in Afghanistan to cater to Western decorative tastes. It is renowned for its vegetable dyes, Ghazni wool, and simplified classical Persian motifs.
