Hand-Knotted Wool Moud Persian Rug, 79 × 235 cm

The piece in short

A Moud from Iran, measuring 79 × 235 cm. It covers approximately 1.86 m², or 2.6' × 7.7'. Moud rugs are known for their fine Herati pattern.

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-knotted. Pile height is given as 10-12mm.

Size and placement

A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 200,000–299,999 knots/m². This knot density balances pattern definition against hard-wearing construction.

How it reads

It is catalogued under red and orange. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
