Fine Senneh Rug, West Persia, Circa 1890, 2.03m X 1.30m

19th century
Description

Senneh rugs are among the finest and most coveted Persian rugs of the 19th century. This fine silk-warped example is a joy to both look at and to handle. The wool is soft and velvety, while silk foundation gives the rug an additional fineness which enables one to fold it like a textile. Amazing! The classic Heratic design drawn in concentric hexagons of different colours is well-known. Here it is intricately but crisply drawn with great finesse. Outstanding is the honey yellow background colour of the field. Note the jewel-like sapphire spandrels and the lovely palmette border which frames the composition perfectly. The colours are so subtle and harmonious that one can image this fine Persian rug enhancing many decorative settings. Professionally cleaned, and in very good condition, this is a collectors' item.

Archival Detail
Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Originating from Sanandaj in western Iran, Senneh rugs are characterized by fine hand-knotted weaving, low wool pile, and intricate geometric or central medallion designs.

Traditional Persian rugs are hand-knotted using hand-spun wool pile woven onto a durable cotton or wool warp and weft, with yarns tinted using natural vegetable dyes.

Authentic pieces feature an exceptionally tight weave, low pile, clear detail visible on the reverse side, and classic repeating motifs like the Herati or concentric diamond patterns.

Position the rug beneath neutral contemporary furniture in a sitting room or hallway to introduce warm colour palette accents and detailed historic texture.

Vacuum gently using suction only without a rotating brush bar, rotate the rug periodically to balance foot traffic wear, and seek specialist rug cleaning for deep maintenance.
