Hand-knotted Persian rug in burgundy grey 120x180.

Hand-knotted Oriental rug. The label simply states "Orient, " but the design is characteristic of Moud (Mood) or sometimes Birjand rugs, originating from eastern Iran (Persia). It features a well-defined hexagonal central medallion, surrounded by a dark red/pink field sprinkled with Boteh motifs (tear-shaped or stylised palmette patterns, often referred to as paisley motifs). The mention of "handmade rug, " along with the backing and fringes, confirms that it is indeed an authentic handcrafted weaving, not a mechanical copy. The weave and knots are regular, typical of quality workshop production. Its size of 120x178cm is a standard size ideal for a small room, an entrance, or a limited living space. The pile is made of good quality wool with a beautiful sheen that sometimes resembles silk or very silky wool, and the fringes/backing are made of cotton. The rug appears to be in good condition. The colours remain vibrant, and the borders as well as the fringes are clean and intact. Width 120, length 182.
