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 carpets derive their name from a traditional trading place in the Orient - the city of Samarkand in Uzbekistan. Samarkand carpets 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 set up its own production in Sultanabad, Pakistan, and hire some of the best carpet weavers to meet this growing demand. Samarkand carpets are knotted in the finest handwork with about 350,000 knots / m2 and promise very high quality.
Today, Samarkand carpets stand for exceptional quality and modern, Oriental-inspired patterns. The carpets draw their inspiration from classic Persian carpet design. The wool used is of high quality, and the color palette consisting of natural plant dyes is softer and subtler than that of Persian carpets. The shorter pile makes it easy to keep the carpet clean.
