Hand-Knotted Wool Moud Persian Rug, 206 × 310 cm

Overview

This Moud comes from Iran and measures 206 × 310 cm. That is roughly 6.39 m² of floor, about 6.8' × 10.2'. Moud rugs are known for their fine Herati pattern.

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool.

Size and placement

The rug is rectangular. A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

Knot density and quality

The stated knot density is 400,000–499,999 knots/m². At this density even small-scale motifs can be worked out cleanly.

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.
