The History of Mood:
The province of Khorassan is a vast, rug producing area with a long and storied history. To ensure the quality of the rugs woven and marketed in the region Shah Abbas (1571-1629) regularly seized and destroyed badly woven or coloured rugs. Mashad, the provincial capital, is the main market centre for the Khorassan rugs. Other rug-producing centres in the region are Kashmar, Moud, Sabzevar, Ghain and Birjand. Many Baluch tribal rugs are also woven in Khorassan. Most of the rugs woven in the province are made of soft, lustrous wool on a cotton foundation. The patterns include historic pictorials unique to Khorassan.
Description of Mood Style:
Mood Persian rugs are hand-woven in Mashad, the capital of the province of Khorassan. Mood rugs are rare and very high quality—at the top of the Persian rug category. They feature thick piles and intricate, all-over patterns in the Boteh or Herati designs. The main colours are tones of beige, brown, blue and red.
Please note the original dimensions of this rug. Although supplied as modifiable, over stretching may distort the pattern. Also note that as a representation of a handmade product it may have less than perfect linage. This part of the beauty of such a rug.
