Persian Senneh (Sehna, Senna, Sinneh) rugs and carpets

The Persian town of Senneh is now known as Sanandaj, and is located north-west of Hamadan. Senneh is a Persian Kurdish weave and gives its name to the asymmetric Persian knot. Senneh has been famous for its finely woven rugs and kilims for over two hundred years. Many fine examples of fine Persian Senneh rugs and carpets can be found in London's Oriental rug and carpet warehouses.
