Senneh is a Kurdish town in north west Iran, in what is the eastern part of
Kurdistan. Like all Kurdish rugs, those of Senneh are woven in the symmetric knot on a cotton foundation. One unusual feature is that the warps can sometimes be dyed in bands of different colors.
All relationship with the generality of Kurdish weaving ends with the symmetric knotting. Senneh rugs are extremely fine and have delicate patterns, including the Herati, all-over repeated botehs of remarkable elegance or other dense floral patterns made up of hundreds of tiny elements. Indeed, Senneh rugs disprove the theory that symmetric knotting is unsuitable to elegant and delicate curvilinear floral patterns.
The entire field may show such a pattern, or a medallion scheme may introduce a hexagonal centerpiece and straight-arched ends.
Senneh Rugs are by far the most sophisticated of the Kurdish Rugs.
