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 take 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. Because of the political upheaval of the Persian Empire and the strong Western demand for rugs, Ziegler decided to establish its own production in Sultanabad, Pakistan, and hire some of the best rug weavers to meet this growing demand. Samarkand rugs are handmade to the finest standards with about 350,000 knots per m2 and promise very high quality.
Today, Samarkand rugs stand for exceptional quality and modern, Oriental-inspired patterns. The rugs draw 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 subtler than that of Persian carpets. The shorter pile makes it easier to keep the rug clean.
