Antique Senneh Persian rug 100 yrs old blue grey pink
This Persian carpet is called a Senneh and it is over a hundred years old.
The rug has a lot of character because it shows the patina of time. There is visible wear and repair, and the pile is just 1/5 inch thick. In the detail photos you can see how a different pattern has been revealed than would show in a new rug - the detailed geometric pattern look almost as if made of a cross-stitch embroidery. You can't just make a rug like this - it takes a lot of time for type of pattern and character to emerge.
Beautiful and intricate geometric pattern in a soft colour palette of various pale and dark blues, grey and charcoal, pink, and cream. The colours would match well with light or dark wood, especially in the red tones, like cherry. It would look amazing in an all white room, in a small library, enclosed porch, or to define a home office nook.
5' x 6'6" (1.53 x 1.98 m)
All vegetable dyed (no aniline dye) 100% wool, hand knotted carpet.
The fringe is a recent addition. In one area there is a small tear some wax visible on the fringe where it was repaired (see the detail photo of the fringe).
