Moud

The Persian Rug from Mood is woven in the small town of Mood, located in the eastern part of Iran's South Khorasan province.

The Mood rug is well-known for its 'Herati pattern', which features a delicate design of small flowers and leaves that geometrically repeat, spreading harmoniously across the entire rug. Additionally, designs with medallions reminiscent of stars or suns at the center, as well as 'garden motifs' depicting flowers and trees within finely divided borders, can also be found, showcasing vibrant and poetic patterns.

The color palette combines soft base tones of ivory and beige with rich reds, blues, and browns in exquisite balance. While not flashy, the harmony of colors is beautiful, conveying a sense of elegance typical of Persian rugs amidst a calm demeanor.

Made from wool, the rug offers a smooth texture and durability. The pile is densely packed, with a knot density of approximately 200,000 to 450,000 knots per square meter, placing it in the finer category. This results in excellent reproduction of patterns and depth. The finishing involves trimming the pile to a shorter length, allowing the patterns to be clearly visible while providing a soft underfoot feel.

While Mood rugs have been cherished in Europe for a long time, they are still relatively unknown in Japan, making them a hidden gem among Persian rugs.
