AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Pile: 100% wool
Weft & Warp: 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 East—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 upheavals of the Persian Empire and strong Western demand for carpets, Ziegler decided to establish its own production in Sultanabad, Pakistan, and employed some of the finest rug weavers to meet this growing demand. Samarkand rugs are hand-knotted in the finest craftsmanship with about 350,000 knots / m2, promising very high quality.
Today, Samarkand rugs symbolize exceptional quality and modern, oriental-inspired patterns. The rugs draw inspiration from classical 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 the rug easy to keep clean.
