Senneh Persian Rugs
This magnificent 10'0" x 5'2" semi antique Senneh Persian rug showcases the refined artistry that has made these textiles treasures of Persian culture for centuries. Woven between 40-60 years ago in the historic Kurdistan region, this exceptional piece displays the sophisticated medallion design known as Toranj, surrounded by the intricate Herati motifs that dance across a rich field of madder red and crimson. The central medallion blooms like a jeweled flower against the warm crimson backdrop, while delicate navy blue and ivory details create stunning contrast throughout the composition.
The ancient city of Senneh, renowned as the pearl of Kurdistan, has produced some of Persia's most coveted rugs since the Safavid dynasty. Master weavers in this mountainous region perfected the art of creating incredibly dense carpets using symmetrical Ghiordes knots, resulting in textiles of extraordinary durability and beauty. This particular rug exemplifies the Senneh tradition with its precise geometric patterns and superior craftsmanship, featuring the beloved Herati design where small fish swim eternally around diamond motifs, symbolizing abundance and protection.
The sophisticated color palette tells its own story through traditional Persian dyes, with the dominant madder red speaking of passion and strength, while navy blue represents wisdom and tranquility. Accents of forest green evoke the lush landscapes of Kurdistan, gold threads catch light like precious metal, and touches of ivory provide elegant breathing space. Rust red and brown tones add earthiness, while deep blue and black create dramatic depth that makes every motif appear to float above the surface.
Los Angeles Home of Rugs presents this one-of-a-kind hand-knotted masterpiece that transforms any interior space with its commanding presence and timeless elegance. The 10'0" x 5'2" foot proportion makes it ideal for dining rooms, study areas, or as a stunning runner in grand hallways, while its semi antique patina brings instant character and sophistication. The natural wool pile feels luxurious underfoot, while the cotton foundation ensures lasting structural integrity for generations of enjoyment.
