Description

A trophy piece, made for no other reason than to demonstrate an excess of disposable wealth. The exquisitely fine quality makes this far too delicate for the floor, and it was never intended to be walked on. This little gem was made to show off the skill of the weaver and the wealthy patrons keen eye for beauty. The fact it has survived the decades in such pristine condition is also remarkable and testament to the generations who have preserved it carefully, waiting for a new, temporary custodian... Great display piece.

Senneh kilims originate from the town of Sanandaj in western Iran, historically renowned for exceptionally fine flatweave techniques and intricate geometric medallion patterns.

Traditional kilims are constructed using hand-spun wool for the weft threads, often combined with cotton or silk foundations such as silk warps for added structural fineness.

Authenticity is identified through natural vegetable dyes, hand-spun irregular yarns, slit-weave construction techniques, and age-appropriate wear patterns along the selvedges.

Antique kilims add texture and heritage to contemporary spaces when used as small floor accents, table covers, or mounted securely as textile art on neutral walls.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, keeping items out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, and avoiding chemical washing.
