Antique Kilim - Senneh Persian Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1870s. This exceptional example of weaving artistry represents the pinnacle of 19th-century Persian 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.
