Senneh Persian Rugs
This magnificent semi-antique Senneh Persian rug at 9'12" x 5'1" presents a stunning medallion composition that transforms any living space with its timeless elegance. The deep crimson field serves as a dramatic canvas for the intricate central medallion, while dark red accents create visual depth throughout the design. Navy blue borders frame the composition beautifully, enhanced by delicate cream and ivory details that illuminate the traditional Herati motifs dancing across the field.
Originating from the Kurdish regions of Persia, Senneh rugs represent centuries of masterful weaving traditions passed down through generations of skilled artisans. This particular piece, aged between 40 to 60 years, carries the refined characteristics that made Senneh weavings legendary throughout the Persian Empire. The symmetrical Ghiordes knots create an exceptionally dense pile that has maintained its structural integrity and lustrous appearance despite decades of graceful aging.
The central medallion, known as Toranj in Persian weaving terminology, symbolizes the cosmic center and divine unity, while the surrounding Herati pattern represents abundance and prosperity. These fish-like motifs, also called Mahi, swim gracefully throughout the field, creating a sense of movement and life within the static geometry. The black outlines provide definition to each element, ensuring the intricate details remain crisp and readable even from a distance.
The rich crimson and dark red palette evokes warmth and sophistication, making this rug an ideal centerpiece for formal dining rooms or elegant sitting areas. At 9'12" x 5'1" feet, this size works perfectly under dining tables or as a statement piece in entryways and hallways. Los Angeles Home of Rugs proudly presents this exceptional example of Persian craftsmanship, where each knot tells a story of cultural heritage and artistic mastery.
This one-of-a-kind hand-knotted treasure elevates any interior with its authentic character and museum-quality construction. The natural wool fibers have developed a beautiful patina over the decades, creating subtle color variations that add depth and sophistication to the overall composition. The cotton foundation provides lasting durability, while the traditional fringe adds an authentic finishing touch that speaks to generations of weaving excellence.
