This antique Persian Senneh rug, measuring approximately 4x5, showcases a bold stepped diamond medallion surrounded by intricate floral motifs on a deep, saturated field. The design composition is strikingly geometric, with a rich interplay of crimson, navy, and ivory tones that accentuate the tribal aesthetic. The precise and symmetrical execution, coupled with the high level of detail, reflects the craftsmanship typical of Kurdish weavers from the region. Ideal for adding a graphic punch to a small space, this rug combines visual drama with artisanal authenticity.
About Senneh Rugs
Woven in the town of Sanandaj (historically known as Senneh) in western Iran, Senneh rugs are prized for their fine weave and often feature a single medallion or repeating herati design. Though technically Kurdish, these rugs are typically more refined than other tribal weavings, blending tribal flair with city-level precision. Known for their tight knots and durable structure, Senneh rugs have long appealed to collectors and designers alike for their ability to deliver bold aesthetics in compact sizes.
