This hand-knotted Moud rug originates from the Khorasan region in Northeast Iran. The piece is distinguished by the classic Herati design, also known as the Mahi pattern, which is centered by a striking hexagonal medallion.
The rug is crafted with a virgin wool pile on a sturdy cotton base, ensuring durability and a rich texture. Measuring 275 by 365 centimeters, it offers a generous surface area. The color palette consists of warm earth tones, including terracotta and deep navy blue, set against a bright ivory or cream background. This combination of materials and colors reflects the traditional weaving techniques of the region.
The rug is in good condition; however, one side shows more wear than the other, consistent with its age and use.
The original finish and the integrity of the weave have been preserved, which is fitting for its age. This Moud rug forms a strong foundation for various interior styles, from classic to eclectic. Its generous size makes it particularly suitable for anchoring a seating area or adding warmth and texture to a spacious dining room.
