About the Item

Antique Senneh rugs come from the Northwest region of Iran and the construction provides insight into the elegance of French tapestries. These rugs are the thinnest of Persian rugs, often with a single layer. They range in color from brilliant to muted, and they also range in design from a central focal design to intricately patterned types. While the design and color are always beautiful and painstakingly created, the unique aspects of the weaving process make Antique Senneh rugs different from other types of Persian rugs. The threads used in the process of weaving are ultra-fine. Created from fine wool, the threads are spun very tightly and thin. Antique Senneh rugs are also easily identifiable due to the difference in texture between the front and the back. The front pile is silky and smooth, but the back is coarse and scratchy. This difference is unique to older Senneh rugs. Antique Senneh rugs are treasures. The beauty of their color, design and texture identify these rugs as unique and lovely, but the most significant aspect to these rugs is the delicacy of the creation. This is a lovely antique Senneh rug was hand knotted in Iran circa 1900 and measures 4.5 x 6.6 ft.
