A classic floral design of the rugs from the Mahallat region near the city of Sultanabad was named after it. \n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e\nThe region Mahallat near the city \u003cb\u003eSultanabad\u003c\/b\u003e (formerly Arak) became an important center for the knotting of Persian export rugs from the 1870s onwards. The English import company, Company Messrs played a major role in this development. Ziegler \u0026 Co. Ltd. founded by a Swiss merchant, also opened a branch office in Mahallat in 1883.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e\nThese rugs, also known as Mahal, Ziegler-Mahal or simply \u003cb\u003eZiegler\u003c\/b\u003e, were knotted in the surrounding villages according to \u003cb\u003ewestern color and pattern specifications\u003c\/b\u003e. The mixture of European design guidelines of lighter, calmer colors and classical patterns in the style of Farahan and \u003cb\u003eSultanabad\u003c\/b\u003e rugs was very well received in Europe.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e \u003cbr\/\u003e\nThe success was huge and Ziegler rugs became an international quality label. The exquisite flow of the multileaf flowers is remarkable in Ziegler rugs. Well-preserved antique Ziegler rugs achieve record prices today, especially in the USA. For some years now, these antique Ziegler designs are being reknotted at high quality in Pakistan or India.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e\nThe newly produced Ziegler rugs made of hand-spun wool and dyed with natural colors are part of the revival of hand-knotted rugs. The return to traditional techniques began in the early 1980s, driven among other things by the DOBAG initiative. Initially, reproduction concentrated on Ziegler rugs, as described above. Subsequently, the reproduction of almost all traditional Persian patterns began. This resulted in both the adaptation of antique rugs and contemporary designs, with the charm of an antique rug.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatterns\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e The luxuriant \u003cb\u003eflower motifs\u003c\/b\u003e of this Farahan are elegant and varied. The graceful vegetative symbols representing flowers, leaves and branches are artfully intertwined.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e The \u003cb\u003erecurring pattern\u003c\/b\u003e (so-called repeating pattern) flatters the design of the room and does not take attention away from the furniture, the decoration and architectural elements. It creates a pleasant atmosphere without dominating the style of the room. In this Farahan the \u003cb\u003erepeating elements\u003c\/b\u003e give way to the \u003cb\u003esymmetrical medallion\u003c\/b\u003e in the center of the panel.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e  The \u003cb\u003eembellished edging (border)\u003c\/b\u003e forms a glorious contrast to the center and creates a transition at the edge of the rug.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e The background of this Farahan is light red.  The border features beige and light brown. The beige center combines the colors light brown and light blue.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterial\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe technique used to produce the materials of the pile of this Farahan is over 200 years old. The wool is dyed with \u003cb\u003enatural colors\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003e spun by hand\u003c\/b\u003e. Dyeing with natural or vegetable dyes is more complicated, expensive and time-consuming than dyeing with chemical dyes. For a bright red, for example, you would need about one kilogram of ground madder root per kilogram of wool as dye. For a strong, not too pale yellow, you would need two kilograms of the dye madder per kilogram of wool. Also spinning wool is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, fewer and fewer people are able to hand spin wool.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e\nBut the effort is worth it: By dyeing with natural dyes, the high-quality wool retains its natural fat content. Wool dyed with \u003cb\u003enatural colors\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003e spun by hand\u003c\/b\u003e creates fascinating, iridescent patterns. The charm of hand-spun wool with its slight irregularities and natural hues unfolds as a contrasting element in modern interiors, but also in rooms that are furnished in a more traditional or country house style. The weft and warp threads of this Farahan are made of \u003cb\u003ecotton\u003c\/b\u003e. This versatile material is tear-resistant and stretchable and, therefore, ideal for a durable backing fabric.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zomorrodi Teppiche","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32255704989789,"sku":"272650","price":7800.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2298\/8523\/products\/272650_gesamt_6b354e7a-dce3-4c96-afd5-1b00ea75b7bb.jpg?v=1586922288","url":"https:\/\/www.zomorrodi-teppiche.de\/en-de\/products\/farahan-teppich-400-x-307-272650","provider":"Zomorrodi Teppiche","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
