In the 18th century, mainly prayer rugs with so-called \u003cb\u003e mehrab or mihrab patterns \u003c\/b\u003e were made here. Mihrab refers to the Islamic prayer niche in mosques, which shows the direction of prayer (qibla), i.e. the direction of Mecca. Traditionally, rugs with the mihrab pattern are used by Muslims to pray and are therefore particularly valuable. Characteristic for the depiction of the prayer niche in Ladik rugs is that it shows a roof with two points at the top. Today, Ladik mainly makes rugs with traditional Persian flower motifs. This antique Ladik is a collector's item. It is \u003cb\u003eabout 120 years old\u003c\/b\u003e and, therefore, a really special piece. Antique rugs like this Ladik are still very popular and are sold at top prices by renowned auction houses.\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 edge of the rug is decorated with an \u003cb\u003eedging (border)\u003c\/b\u003e. The border forms a excellent contrast to the center.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e The \u003cb\u003e abstract, geometric composition\u003c\/b\u003e creates the simple elegance of this Ladik. The pattern flatters the design of the room and does not take the attention away from its furniture, decoration and architectural elements.  It creates a pleasant atmosphere without dominating the style of the room.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003e In the pattern of this Ladik, the \u003cb\u003ediamonds\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e stand out in particular. Diamonds are a rhombus standing on a point, the four equal sides of which may be jagged, stitched or hooked. The diamond is one of the oldest basic forms in oriental rugs. It has a symbolic meaning in the Islamic world: it symbolizes the immortality of the soul. It is therefore very often found as a filler motif.\n\u003cbr\/\u003e\u003cbr\/\u003eThe colors yellow and dark red dominate the overall impression. The border features yellow and terracotta.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis Ladik has a story. It was hand knotted about \u003cb\u003e 1900\u003c\/b\u003e. It has been thoroughly cleaned and only partially restored condition but is in good condition. We have not completely restored this Ladik because we think it is as it is a special charm. If you would like, we will of course restore the rug further for you. We can restore almost any rug to an almost perfect condition. \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 Ladik 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 backing (weft and warp threads) of this Ladik is made of \u003cb\u003evirgin wool\u003c\/b\u003e.\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":32255543509085,"sku":"13529","price":1980.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2298\/8523\/products\/13529_gesamt_23f20664-7633-49fc-acb8-95ccc1b66979.jpg?v=1586920007","url":"https:\/\/www.zomorrodi-teppiche.de\/en\/products\/antiker-ladik-teppich-147-x-99-13529","provider":"Zomorrodi Teppiche","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
