MOUD (MOOD) rugs and
carpets usually have curvilinear patterns with a single
sunflower-shaped medallion in the center. MOUD (MOOD)
has characteristics similar to BIRJAND Rugs. They
are highly prized because they are one of the
best-looking carpets in IRAN and the world. Dark red
,brown and powerful blue colors predominate, with ivory
forming a beautiful contrast. There are other colors
such as soft green in newer carpets. Inspection of the
back of the carpet is important because the weavers in
MOUD (MOOD) use Persian knots. The quality
of the carpet depends upon the number of knots, which
varies, but averages from around 120 KPSI (30 RAJ) up to
475 KPSI (60 RAJ). |
