Senneh 1063

Early 20th Century Vintage Persian Senneh Area Rug, meticulously hand-knotted circa the early 1900s. Senneh rugs, hailing from the skilled Kurdish weavers of Western Persia, are renowned worldwide for their exceptional fineness of weave, remarkably high knot density, and sophisticated designs, representing the pinnacle of Persian rug artistry.

This captivating area rug features an elegant all-over "Herati" pattern, a signature motif of Senneh weavers characterized by its intricate rosette-within-diamond-lattice design. This timeless pattern gracefully unfolds across a deep and inviting abrash navy blue background. The "abrash" effect, where subtle, natural tonal variations beautifully highlight the weave, is a testament to traditional dyeing methods and adds profound depth, authenticity, and a charming patina that only enhances its antique appeal.

A hallmark of this rug's superior quality is its extremely fine weave and very high knot density, which allows for incredible detail and durability. This meticulous craftsmanship makes it a luxurious and long-lasting textile.

The entire composition is beautifully framed by a distinguished French blue color border, which is adorned with its own intricate geometric pattern throughout. This elegant border provides a refined contrast, perfectly complementing the central field and enhancing the rug's overall grandeur and visual harmony. The design is further accented by harmonious touches of classic red, sunny yellow, and luminous ivory.

The combination of its exceptionally fine weave, beautiful all-over pattern, and choice of superb colors makes this a truly beautiful antique oriental rug.
