Antique Persian Senneh rug

I was lucky to find this very fine antique Persian Senneh rug circa 1900 size 1.92m x 1.28m. The design of stripes of cream and terracotta inlaid with small repeating leaves is very unusal, and is often referred to as the shawl design. Senneh rugs are produced in the Persian Kurdistan area of Iran, in the town now known as Sanandaj. You will find a photo of this rug in gallery three.
