About 1200 Reeds Carpet
a type of hand-knotted rug with exceptional craftsmanship and artistry. Originating from the Senneh region in present-day Iran, these carpets are renowned for their intricate designs, high knot density, and luxurious feel. With each carpet featuring approximately 1200 knots per square inch, the 1200 Reeds carpet is a testament to the artisans’ skill and dedication.
Traditionally, Senneh knot carpets are made from high-quality wool, silk, or a combination of the two materials, resulting in a soft and luxurious texture. The fine materials used in constructing these carpets allow for a high level of detail in the design, showcasing the remarkable skill of the weavers.
The patterns and motifs found on the 1200 Reeds carpets are often inspired by the rich cultural heritage of the Senneh region, featuring intricate floral and geometric designs. The vibrant colors used in these machine made carpets are derived from natural dyes, ensuring that each piece remains vivid and beautiful for years.
One of the distinguishing features of the 1200 Reeds carpet is its unique knotting technique. The Senneh knot, also known as the Persian knot, is a complex method of tying individual knots around the warp threads, allowing for greater detail and precision in the design. This intricate knotting method contributes to the carpet’s durability and longevity, ensuring it will remain cherished for generations.
The 1200 Reeds carpet is not only a functional floor covering but also a work of art that reflects the rich history and cultural heritage of the Senneh region. Each carpet is a masterpiece, handcrafted by skilled artisans who have dedicated their lives to preserving this ancient art form.
