AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Pile: 100% wool
Warp & weft: 100% cotton
Quality: hand-knotted
Knot count: 350,000 / m2
Pile height: 8 mm Origin: Pakistan

Our Samarkand rugs derive their name from a traditional trading hub in the Orient – the city of Samarkand in Uzbekistan. Samarkand rugs were produced in the late 19th century by the renowned Swiss trading family Ziegler. Due to the political unrest of the Persian Empire and the strong Western demand for carpets, Ziegler decided to establish its own production in Sultanabad, Pakistan, and hire some of the best carpet weavers to meet this growing demand. Samarkand rugs are hand-knotted in the finest craftsmanship with about 350,000 knots / m2 and promise very high quality.

Today Samarkand rugs stand for exceptional quality and modern, Oriental-inspired patterns. The rugs draw their inspiration from classic Persian rug design. The wool used is of high quality, and the color palette based on natural plant dyes is softer and more subtle than that of Persian rugs. The shorter pile makes it easier to keep the rug clean.
