Senneh
Sanandaj … more Late 19th Century W. Persian Senneh Carpet ( 4' 5'' x 6' 5'' - 135 x 196 cm)
Senneh
Sanandaj or Senneh is the capital of Kurdistan province. Rugs made there and in the surrounding villages have a peculiar back with a rough, sandpaper texture. The front pile is very dry and can be almost abrasive, even in very fine pieces. The foundation is usually cotton, but some very fine pieces were woven on silk warps. Patterns are either layered medallions or overall, and the Herati design is very popular. The execution is precise and detailed. Present production is vestigial, but the best 19th century pieces, almost all 4 x 6 are jewel-like in quality. less
