A finely woven Persian Senneh runner featuring a deep navy ground filled with repeating coral medallions and intricate geometric florals. The elongated proportions make it ideal for hallways, kitchens, and entry passages, while the tight weave and crisp drawing reflect the precision Senneh workshops are known for.

Design and Motifs

The field presents a rhythmic chain of stepped medallions connected vertically, creating movement along the length of the runner. Each medallion encloses rosettes and small floral elements, surrounded by dense lattice motifs. The drawing is compact and symmetrical, characteristic of classic Senneh craftsmanship and admired for its refined geometry.

Border and Framing

Multiple guard borders frame the composition with delicate vine and rosette patterns. The main border features scrolling floral forms in ivory and red, providing contrast and a structured frame that defines the long, narrow silhouette.
