Afghan Super Fine Ziegler Runner

£950£1,250In stock, ready to ship

A beautifully crafted Afghan Super Fine Ziegler Runner — an exceptional example of the renowned Ziegler style, hand-woven in Afghanistan to an extraordinarily high standard. Made over ten to twelve months from the finest hand-spun wool on a wool foundation, it has a luxuriously soft, dense and plush feel underfoot — a true mark of superior craftsmanship that will grace your home for generations. The design unfolds in a warm, welcoming palette — rich terracotta and soft rose form the field, brought to life with gracefully arranged floral motifs in sky blue, golden ochre, cream and deep indigo. The patterns flow gently along the length of the runner, balanced and symmetrical yet full of life and movement. Broad cream borders frame the piece with intricate repeating medallion and floral detailing, enhancing its elegance and timeless appeal. Every motif is rendered with remarkable precision — the hallmark of a super-fine weave. Measuring a generous 375 cm by 82 cm, this is a truly impressive runner — ideal for long hallways, grand entranceways, open-plan kitchens or dining corridors. It brings instant warmth, refined colour and quiet luxury to larger spaces, complementing both classic and contemporary interiors with ease. A genuine Afghan Super Fine Ziegler — beautifully proportioned, exceptionally soft and built to last.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 150 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 714,939 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 8 months.

How that is worked out: 148 in × 32 in × 150 knots per sq. in. ≈ 714,939 — that is 375 × 82 cm converted to inches, because knot density is counted per square inch.

Magnify past 13× and the field stops being a picture and becomes what it actually is: rows of individual knots, each one a decision about colour made at a particular moment.

The same test works in the shop, on any rug, with no equipment. We wrote up how to do it in the back of the rug tells you everything.
