Characteristics of the Origin (Senneh)

Senneh, located in northwestern Iran, is the name of a city where the Kurdish people live. Senneh kilims are highly regarded among Kurdish kilims and are said to excel in weaving techniques and craftsmanship. This technique is believed to be influenced by carpet weaving. Senneh kilims are characterized by small floral patterns and a central medallion. Senneh is also currently known as Sanandaj, and a rich variety of flatweave kilims are produced there. The patterns are beautifully intricate, as if a flower garden were reflected in a pond, and possess a unique charm.

What is a Kilim?

Persian hand-woven kilims are globally popular traditional hand-woven textiles that become more appealing with age. They are known as vintage kilims, old kilims, or antique kilims depending on the era they were woven, and are loved by a wide range of generations, young and old. Most kilims are made of wool, but some are also produced using cotton or silk. Natural materials are used. Since natural dyes are used for coloring, you can use them with peace of mind. These hand-woven kilims are durably woven and are based on the design styles of tribes and ethnic groups, known as tribal rugs. They are characterized by geometric patterns inspired by nature and animals, and each kilim has its own unique design.
Various ethnic groups live in the vast land of Iran. The designs and colors vary by region, allowing you to enjoy a diverse range of patterns.

Other Uses for Kilims

Kilims are widely used not only simply as rugs or floor coverings but also as decorative items on walls, sofas, tables, beds, and other interior elements. Their unique designs and colors are distinctive, and they are often utilized as room accents. Kilims are not just decorative items; they are important elements that enrich the overall atmosphere of a room and highlight individuality. They add a unique charm and warmth to a room's space. By utilizing kilims, you can create a life surrounded by art and comfort, and enjoy living surrounded by things you love.

Kilims and Interior Design

Kilims are highly versatile and can be incorporated into various interior design styles. In modern interiors, introducing the unique patterns and colors of a kilim into a simple space can create an accent. For natural or Nordic interiors, combining them with wooden furniture, plants, or other natural materials can enhance the kilim's warmth and natural ambiance. They also pair well with a bohemian atmosphere; placing them on the floor or hanging them on a wall can elevate the entire room's vibe. Kilims have an ethnic design and a tribal feel, making them a good match for interiors that incorporate cultural elements from Iran, Turkey, or Morocco. Arranging them as tapestries or cushions can add warmth and depth to the entire room.

Daily Care

Remove dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner or broom. If you need to clean a stain, dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water, wring out a towel tightly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, wipe thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any detergent residue and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

Points to Note

Due to being hand-woven, there may be slight distortions in shape, weaving irregularities, or color variations. Please enjoy these as part of the charm of a hand-woven item.
