Moud Persian Rug — hand-knotted, 80 × 250 cm, Wool

The piece in short

Hand-knotted in Iran: a Moud of 80 × 250 cm. It covers approximately 2 m², or 2.6' × 8.2'. Moud rugs are known for their fine Herati pattern.

Materials and construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. The rug was hand-knotted throughout. Pile height is given as 10-12mm.

Where it fits

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

On the knot count

The stated knot density is 400,000–499,999 knots/m². Knotting at this density allows detailed drawing and soft transitions between colours.

On the colourway

Colour is recorded as Weiß / beige. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
