Antique Kilim - Senneh Persian Multicolor 1880s Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional example of a flat woven kilim originates from the Senneh region of Persia, renowned for its highly detailed and finely executed weaving tradition. The piece is clearly a tribal saddlebag (or 'khorjin'), evidenced by the original leather straps and the segmented structure, offering a rare glimpse into utilitarian textile history. The design employs a sophisticated vertical striping, where alternating bands of geometric motifs flank central panels featuring stylized floral and vine elements. The tight, repetitive structure ensures an appealing visual rhythm, characteristic of allover rugs from the Kurdish weaving centers that perfected this intricate, continuous patterning.
