Senneh Rug, Iran, 144 X 107 Cm

Iranian wool rug, cotton warp and weft, circa 1940. Very good condition considering its age. Even wear throughout. The knots have been repaired in our workshop. A solid and durable rug.

Authentic Senneh, zaronim format, featuring a traditional motif, probably of Kurdish origin. In the center, a blue medallion is set within a patinated red medallion, which is itself set within a medallion on a beige background. Four spandrels frame the center. The main border is decorated with the 'boteh' motif* and flowers.
*Boteh: An ancient motif with various meanings. It can represent the transformation of Zoroaster into a cypress tree, a symbol of eternity, but also into a drop of water, a palm tree, or a tree. The term boteh means "flowering bush" in Persian. There is a similarity to yin and yang.
