Anitique rugs and carpets exhibition by Nazmiyal Collection
After years of searching, collecting, and refining a coveted selection of Sultanabads, Nazmiyal is proud to put these fine pieces on exhibition for the public. The viewing will be held at their New York gallery from February 8th through February 26th. The Sultanabad Exhibition will display the unique beauty of these Persian rugs with their fantastic color schemes and brilliant all-over designs and will include a selection of many true original Zieglers.
During the late 19th century, the German firm Hotz & Son & Ziegler & Co. commissioned a number of Sultanabads to be made to suit western demands. This new western influence in Persian rugs called for large-scale, all-over design, and used softer color schemas than traditional Persian rugs. Although Sultanabads were produced in the same region as Farahans and Sarouks, they are easily distinguishable due to their designs and colors. Their unique elements set them apart from any other class of rugs, which makes them desirable to collectors. Their soft color palette and open, large-scale design makes them desirable to designers. In truth, anyone can appreciate these wonderful woven pieces of art.
