This antique Persian Senneh rug dates to 1920. Woven from wool and cotton, the piece displays a deep navy field densely decorated with a floral Herati pattern, set against ivory corner spandrels and enclosed within geometric borders. A large mid-blue central diamond medallion dominates the composition, detailed with secondary pink, gold, and green tones, alongside fringe work and secure selvedges showing light, age-related wear. Measuring 146 cm high, 108 cm wide, and 1 cm deep, the rug suits a gentleman's library or study as a floor covering beneath a desk or in a reading nook, bringing traditional hand-knotted craftsmanship and layered colour to an interior.

FAQs

Senneh rugs are traditional Persian textiles woven in and around the city of Sanandaj in western Iran. They are recognised for their exceptionally fine weave, geometric precision, and classic medallion or repeat field patterns.

These rugs are typically crafted with a fine wool pile hand-knotted onto a durable cotton or silk foundation, using natural plant and mineral dyes to produce deep blues, reds, and ivory tones.

Authentic Senneh rugs display extremely fine single-warp knotting, a low-clipped pile, and distinctive design elements such as the Herati pattern, stepped central medallions, and contrasting ivory spandrels.

A small Senneh rug serves as an anchor in an entryway, study, or sitting area, adding visual structure, rich tone, and historical pattern to both classic and contemporary room settings.

Vacuum regularly using suction only without a rotating beater bar, rotate the carpet periodically to ensure even wear, and address spills immediately with a clean dry cloth prior to professional cleaning.
