19th Century W. Persian Senneh Carpet ( 4'8" x 6'6" - 142 x 198 )
Antique Senneh Persian Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exquisite example of 19th-century weaving hails from the Kurdish region of Persia, renowned for producing some of the finest, most tightly knotted antique rugs in the world. The precise execution of the weave, characteristic of Senneh production, highlights the technical mastery inherent in this regional style.
The palette is defined by a luminous, natural camel field, providing a warm, neutral foundation. This light ground beautifully contrasts with the saturated indigo and rust tones used in the repeating medallions and the complex border system. The sophisticated use of natural dyes results in a subtle, variegated abrash that enhances the character of these brown earth-tone color rugs.
The design employs a sophisticated, vertically oriented lattice of interlocking diamond medallions. Each octagonal and diamond form is densely populated with stylized boteh and palmette motifs, creating an elegant visual rhythm. The lack of a central medallion allows the intricate details to flow seamlessly across the entire plane, defining it as a masterful allover design.
With its refined geometry and durable, tightly packed structure, this piece functions perfectly as a small scatter size rug. Its scale and sophisticated detailing make it an ideal accent for a library, entryway, or bedside placement, offering a rare glimpse into late Qajar-era textile artistry and craftsmanship.
