8 foot Senneh Kurdish Runner This is a Kurdish village runner from the Senneh Region. The wool is very good. The rug has had a wash when shipped to give the colors a more muted look. I bought a few of these and they are well made Persian Kurdish village rugs. They are double wefted and differ greatly from the Sennh city rugs which are very fine and have very rough backs. These have very deeply depressed warps which give this rug a double thick foundation. This combined with thick pile make these very long lasting and durable rugs.
We lose a lot of the detail in this picture. Use this picture for pattern and refer to the above scan for the color and fine detail.
Narrow Kurdish Runner From the Sennah Area.
Here are three more examples. The are all very similar in construction to the one described above.
Thanks and best wishes,
