Handmade Persian Senneh Kilim Rug

This is an brand new authentic Senneh kilim rug, handmade in Iran. 

Persian rugs have always been associated with sophisticated and affluent households, with regal highly detailed floral designs such as Isfahan, Kashan and Tabriz rugs, however there are many nomadic people in Iran who weave simpler, tribal rugs, including Gabbeh, Hamadan and Qashqai rugs.

The common motifs of Senneh rugs include: Herati (fish) pattern: a repeating diamond lattice filled with rosettes and leaves resembling fish, Boteh (paisley) design: teardrop-shaped motifs, precursors to the famous Persian paisley pattern, and central medallion layouts or all-over repeating fields. They use slit-tapestry weaving techniques, known for their geometric precision and vibrant patterns. These kilims are considered among the finest flat weaves in the world.

Senneh carpets come from the Kurdish town of Sanandaj, western Iran. The Kurdish weavers of the region developed a distinct weaving technique and aesthetic that set their carpets apart from other Persian styles and the precision of the weave makes the patterns look almost embroidered. These rugs were the originators of the well known asymmetrical Persian (Senneh) knot.

Non-Straight Edges: Some rugs may not have completely straight edges due the handmade-nature of the rugs and rigorous production process of washing, dyeing and trimming. Usually these are not noticeable from eye-height.

Creases: Some rugs may have minor creases due to being folded and stored. These are usually flattened out once they are laid out and in the course of normal foot traffic and vacuuming. You can also flatten creases by applying some water to the crease and applying gentle heat using an iron, indirectly over another cloth.

Colour: The colours and shades may vary slightly due to the lighting when photos are taken. This means that the carpet you receive may look slightly different from the picture. Additionally, carpets naturally have a "light" side and a "dark" side, which is determined by the orientation of the wool pile. This is a characteristic of carpets and should be taken into consideration when choosing a carpet.
