About the Item

A very finely knotted antique Senneh rug characterised by a diamond-shaped medallion placed within an ivory cartouche layered over a indigo blue background. The composition is completely filled by the so-called herati pattern, which consists of a repeating unit of four small stylised leafs sprouting from a central rosette. This Persianate design was used throughout the near east, as it became extremely popular in Europe, where it was labeled 'the Gentleman's pattern'. Senneh rugs are known for their fineness of weave and for its subtle texture, with an exquisite cloth-like handle. Their delicate palette has made them very much in want among rug connoisseurs.
