About the Item

Antique Kilim, Senneh rug, size: 4'2" x 5'6". Antique Kilim – Senneh Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1870s. This exceptional example of weaving artistry represents the pinnacle of 19th-century textile production. Senneh (Sanandaj) is renowned for producing some of the finest and most tightly woven kilims, distinguishing this piece among other antique rugs of the period. The expansive field is dominated by a saturated, earthy hue, a compelling shade of coral achieved through natural dyes that have mellowed beautifully over time. Although the title references a knotted rug, the precise, thin structure and tight weave confirm its identity as a superior flat woven kilim, showcasing the technical mastery of Kurdish weavers in the Senneh region. A striking central medallion anchors the design, rendered in complex, finely articulated patterns of ivory, indigo, and secondary earth tones. While the overall composition is balanced and classical, the intricate internal structure of the medallion employs highly stylized geometric rugs motifs, typical of the regional aesthetic preferences for abstract design elements. The composition is framed by a succession of narrow, detailed borders featuring repeating boteh and stylized vine patterns, providing a rich contrast to the plain field. Its long, narrow format makes it an ideal small scatter size rug, perfect for adding historical depth and vibrant color to a hallway, entryway, or intimate study. This piece is a testament to enduring craftsmanship.
