Afghan Ziegler

£375£495In stock, ready to ship

Hand-knotted in Afghanistan, this Ziegler design draws inspiration from traditional Persian motifs but reimagined with softer, muted tones and a relaxed, open layout. Woven from high-quality wool, it has a wonderfully soft, dense pile and natural warmth. The field features scattered floral medallions in gentle gold, terracotta and rust against a calm grey background, framed by an ornate border in rich cream and beige. A versatile, timeless piece that works beautifully in both classic and contemporary interiors, made by skilled artisans using techniques passed down through generations.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 90 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 206,460 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 3 months.

How that is worked out: 58 in × 39 in × 90 knots per sq. in. ≈ 206,460 — that is 148 × 100 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.
