Hand-knotted from wool in the 1920s, this rug features a repeated paisley boteh motif on a beige field, framed by a dark floral border.

About Persian Kurdish Senneh Rugs
Woven in the city of Sanandaj (formerly known as Senneh) in Iran's Kurdistan region, Senneh rugs are renowned for their fine weave and precision. These rugs are often identified by their use of the boteh motif—an early precursor to the Western paisley—and display remarkable clarity in design. Kurdish weavers brought their tribal heritage and artistic freedom into each piece, blending geometric and floral elements into an elegant, refined composition.
Unique Characteristics of this Senneh Rug
This antique Senneh rug showcases a beautifully balanced boteh repeating design that is both decorative and symbolic. Its crisp drawing and harmonious palette are enhanced by the wool's aged patina. The rug remains in excellent condition, a testament to its fine materials and skilled construction. This wonderful carpet would be ideal for a study, bedroom, or any other space in need of a sophisticated touch.
