This handwoven Persian Senneh rug from the 1960s exemplifies the craftsmanship of Iranian textile artisans. Made from high-quality wool with a soft, subtly lustrous texture reminiscent of cashmere, it features a fine and even weave and a rich, multicolored palette. The deep, cool blue ground serves as the backdrop for a dense, repeating paisley (boteh) pattern, rendered in cream, burgundy, and dark navy, accented with touches of olive green and gold. Interspersed stylized floral medallions complement the composition, while the multilayered border—an inner band in light blue and an outer in burgundy—displays classic Persian floral and vine motifs. The edges are neatly finished, with clean and intact fringes. The rug shows no signs of wear, damage, or restoration, and is preserved in excellent condition.Within its threads, one hears the story of the Kurdish Senneh region, famed for geometric precision and ornamental richness. Each paisley motif hints at caravan tales of old, while the deep blue evokes a night sky studded with gold and burgundy accents. The rhythmic regularity of the design pays tribute to tradition, and the lustrous wool creates an atmosphere of quiet refinement. The rug draws the eye without overpowering the room, acting as a subtle foundation for daily rituals and gently accentuating the character of the space.It can be paired with low, dark wood furniture to enhance the depth of its colors, or with light textiles to highlight the contrast against the intense blue. The rug works well in a classic, orient-inspired living room as well as in eclectic, collector’s interiors where historical craftsmanship meets contemporary accents. Consider combining it with simple, geometric ceramics or glass objects to showcase the clarity of the pattern and add a refined
