Antique Red Persian Senneh Rug with Modern Style

About the Item

90030 Antique Red Persian Senneh Rug Runner, 04'04 x 13'02. Bathed in a sense of refined heritage and poised elegance, this hand-knotted wool one-of-kind, antique Persian Senneh rug runner is a triumph of timeless artistry. Its magnificent composition unfolds like a couture garment—precision-crafted, exquisitely layered, and deeply symbolic. The navy blue field, glimmering with countless star motifs, conjures the meticulous geometry of Khatamkari marquetry, evoking a world where the celestial meets the architectural. This dazzling allover pattern is dramatically interrupted by a procession of four richly serrated hexagonal medallions, their crimson-red centers blooming with repeating floral stars in red and royal blue—a sartorial nod to imperial grandeur. Each medallion is encircled by jagged dark green edges, a serrated contour symbolizing protection, strength, and the indomitable beauty of nature. Within their geometry, delicate lotus blossoms emerge at ender end with understated grace, their elegant silhouettes rooted in Tree of Life motifs. These enchanting elements are not mere decoration—they express a world view, a belief in cyclical renewal, spiritual ascendance, and the transcendent connection between heaven and earth. Their placement against the red ground elevates the medallions into radiant focal points—much like jeweled brooches suspended against a velvet gown. The surrounding navy blue field is a constellation of densely arranged star-flower tessellations, shimmering with symmetry and intent. In this sea of pattern, the contrast of red and blue evokes a visual rhythm of poised opulence and classical structure. The meticulously woven surface, accented with star-roses and tiny blossom constellations, reflects not just the precision of the Senneh weavers but the aesthetic discernment of a culture that treasures harmony, order, and ornamental luxury. This exceptional work of art speaks in the hushed language of rare tapestries and heirloom craftsmanship. Framing this captivating masterpiece is a majestic rosette and acanthus scroll border on a celestial navy blue ground, a motif redolent of regal European trim and Persian courtly elegance. This main border is flanked by inner and outer carnation meander guard bands in warm tan, symbolizing continuity and grace. Completing this precious ensemble are slender pink and navy sawtooth guard bands, creating a final tailored edge that mirrors the scalloped hem of a bespoke gown. As both an artistic statement and a piece of functional couture for the floor, this Senneh runner is a confluence of culture, craft, and enduring allure. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 04'04 x 13'02. Pile Height: 0.33 of an inch. Date: 1910's. Early 20th Century.
