About the Item

76779 Vintage Persian Moud Mood Rug, 09'06 x 12'07. This hand-knotted wool vintage Persian Mood rug unfolds like a lyrical manuscript from the heart of Khorasan, where geometry and nature intertwine in a refined harmony of form and color. The field is composed of a mesmerizing allover lattice design, each compartment brimming with stylized medallions and floral rosettes, recalling the ordered splendor of Persian garden layouts. The Moud rug's rhythmic composition evokes the serenity of classical architecture—each signature motif a tile in a grand mosaic of enduring beauty. The interplay of luminous crimson, midnight blue, ivory, and sage green forms a symphony of hues that heightens the richness of the design. The jewel-toned medallions—alternating in ruby-red and lapis-blue—are outlined by delicate ivory tracery, enhancing their visual weight while inviting the eye to linger on the fine detail. Each precious compartment is filled with symbolic motifs: leafy sprays and rosettes nod to the eternal themes of growth and grace, while the lattice framework itself recalls the boundaries of Persian chahar bagh gardens, metaphors for paradise on earth. Framing this orderly paradise is a sumptuous border adorned with continuous floral palmettes and rosettes, flanked by elegant guard bands that echo the motifs within the field. These borders not only ground the exclusive composition but offer a sense of containment, like the decorative walls enclosing an orchard in bloom. The symmetry and repetition throughout the piece elevate the overall design from decorative to meditative—each motif a verse, each corner a refrain. Woven with care and steeped in the artistic traditions of Moud, this exquisite work of art is a legacy of elite Persian craftsmanship. Its poetic geometry, symbolic storytelling, and meticulous construction speak to a culture where beauty and meaning are inseparable. As one gazes upon its interlocking medallions and vibrant motifs, this Persian masterpiece becomes more than a textile—it becomes a timeless expression of order, elegance, and the enduring power of artistic harmony. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Iran. Measures: 09'06 x 12'07. Pile Height: 0.19 of an inch. Date: 1950's. Mid-20th Century.
