7'11" x 9'3" Chobi Peshawar Rug | Putty Ziegler All-Over Floral | Brand New, Never Used

Measuring 7'11" x 9'3", this Chobi Peshawar piece is brand new and has never been laid in a home. It is knotted entirely by hand, with a 5/16" clipped wool pile worked over a cotton foundation, so the drawing stays crisp and the rug lies flat straight out of the roll. The field is a quiet putty tone that shifts between warm beige and a faint soft olive depending on the light in the room, which is exactly why this colorway suits interiors where the furniture, not the floor, is meant to lead. It is a true hand-knotted Oriental rug, not a tufted or machine-made copy, and it ships with our certificate of authenticity confirming the weave, the materials and the origin.

Design and Motifs

The drawing is classic Ziegler: a large-scale all-over floral lattice built from scrolling vines, split palmettes and long serrated leaves that repeat across the whole field rather than orbiting a single medallion. Where the vines cross, small lobed rosettes and 8 petal blossoms drop into the open ground, each one outlined in a thin dark brown line that reads almost like pen work against the pale wool. Tulip heads and curled leaf tips fill the spaces between, and the scale is deliberately generous, so the pattern stays legible from standing height instead of dissolving into busy detail. A triple border frames it: a wide main band of alternating palmettes and flower heads, flanked by two narrow guard stripes of little rosettes and a reciprocal bracket motif that finishes all 4 corners cleanly.

A Closer Look at the Putty and Beige Palette

The ground is putty, a muted sand beige with just enough green in it to keep the rug from turning pink or yellow under warm bulbs. Against that, the vinework is drawn in cool ivory and pale celadon, while the palmettes and larger blossoms carry soft gold and a dusty apricot. The accents do the real work: short strokes of rust and terracotta inside the flower heads, and small chocolate brown leaves scattered through the field and border that give the whole surface its rhythm and stop it from reading flat. The main border sits a shade deeper than the field, and the outer guard stripe is nearly ivory, so the frame reads as a soft edge rather than a hard line. If you are furnishing around beige and ivory rugs, this one gives you pattern and depth without adding a dominant color to the room.

Peshawar Weaving and Chobi Quality

Peshawar, in northwestern Pakistan, has grown into one of the most consistent hand-knotting centers in the world for this style of work, and Chobi production is the top of what the town sends out. The back of this rug tells the story: even, tightly packed knot rows, straight selvages and no skipped or slack areas anywhere along the length, which is what allows the fine brown outlining in the field to hold its shape. The wool is hand-spun and takes the muted dye tones unevenly by design, giving the ground its gentle striation instead of a printed flatness. With the pile clipped low at 5/16", the rug sits close to the floor, slides easily under doors and furniture legs, and will wear slowly and evenly over decades of use.
