Antique Ziegler & Co Sultanabad Camel Hair

This Ziegler & Co Antique Sultanabad is an exceptionally rare example woven in luxurious camel hair, distinguished by its monumental scale and restrained elegance. Originating from the late 19th-century Sultanabad weaving tradition, this piece reflects the Anglo-Persian design sensibility that made Ziegler carpets highly sought after by European and American estates. The expansive field, softened by time, showcases the warm, organic tonal depth unique to natural camel hair.

A richly detailed terracotta-red border frames the minimalist center, adorned with large-scale palmettes and floral motifs rendered in muted blues and earthy neutrals. The striking contrast between the open camel field and the bold border creates architectural balance, allowing the rug to feel both grounded and airy. The gentle patina and visible age lend authenticity and character that cannot be replicated in modern production.

Measuring an impressive 14' x 19'8", this oversized Antique Sultanabad is ideally suited for grand interiors, estates, and formal living spaces requiring museum-level presence. Rare in both material and scale, camel hair Sultanabads of this caliber are highly collectible and increasingly scarce. This piece represents not only decorative beauty but also investment-grade Persian craftsmanship designed to endure for generations.
