Antique Senneh Small Scatter Size Wool Red Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional Persian piece originates from the Kurdish weaving center of Senneh (Sanandaj), renowned for its precise knotting and complex, all-over designs. Its practical small scatter size makes it an ideal accent piece for an entryway or study, offering historical depth in a manageable format. The field presents a striking contrast, utilizing a deep, near-black indigo ground that allows the intricate motifs to radiate. The primary palette is dominated by a rich, earthy red color, balanced by highlights of cream, ochre, and subtle teal, showcasing the mastery of natural dyes characteristic of the late 19th century. The design is a dense, repeating lattice of stylized palmettes and geometric rosettes, executed with the high knot count for which Senneh weavers are celebrated.
