Moud Rugs | Persian carpets with unique designs

Moud

Typical for Moud rugs is their fine, lustrous wool, the dense weave, the earthy, subtly shimmering colours and their smart, stylish designs. This makes these Persian rugs suitable for both individually and creatively designed interiors and for rooms that have a timeless and sophisticated elegance.

The charm, chic and character of Moud rugs

Moud rugs, also known as Mud, Mood or Maud rugs, have their very own presence and appeal. They are as striking as they are adaptable. Whether as the main accent in a room or simply as a subtle design element, they attract attention without being intrusive.

With their striking yet mostly more discreet designs, combined with harmonious, warm and beautifully accentuated earth tones, they appear as timelessly sophisticated as they are subtly rebellious.

Accordingly, they can be used in many different rooms and environments, whether as a runner in the hallway, as a bridge in the bedroom, under the dining table or as a central island in the living room. Thanks to these characteristics, they are also quite popular as decoration and with artists. For example, they are often used in recording studios, studios or as decoration on stages and in films.

Moud rugs and their patterns

There are generally three different design types for these rugs.

All-over pattern:

A repetitive, continuous pattern repeat in the centre field in a Herati/Mahi design is very typical of Moud rugs. The omission of emphasising elements and ornaments generally makes these rugs appear calmer and thus makes them suitable for almost any room.

Pattern with medallion:

The field of a carpet with a medallion is dominated by an elaborate, usually star-shaped central ornament, which often has decorative extensions at the top and bottom. It is not uncommon for this central medallion to be arranged in a hexagonal or octagonal shape. The background design in the centre is also usually formed by the harati pattern in rugs with a medallion. In this variant, additional decorative elements are used, such as corner spandrels and colour-alternating layers. This design looks particularly good in large rooms, where it can unfold its full effect.

Garden pattern or field pattern:

In this design, rectangular fields arranged in rows and columns symbolise Persian or paradise gardens. The individual fields usually show different scenes or motifs, but they repeat in a symmetrical arrangement. Typical motifs in the individual garden squares include weeping willows, flower arrangements and various plants. Rugs with a garden pattern look best in rooms where they can add a harmonious structure to the interior.

Which interior styles do Moud rugs go best with?

Mouds can be harmoniously integrated into a wide variety of interior styles, including the upscale interior style. Here, the rugs unfold their full splendour. They fit perfectly into the stylish atmosphere and luxurious ambience of rooms with fine furniture, heavy curtains and eye-catching accessories.

They are also very suitable for rooms with modern, minimalist furnishings. With their detailed patterns and subtle colours, they create an exciting contrast to the clear lines and neutral colours of the interior.

Moud rugs are also an absolutely perfect choice for a country house style. With their warm beige tones and floral patterns, they fit seamlessly into the cosy, rustic and natural atmosphere of this style of living.

They also fit into the boho-chic style. The boho style thrives on pattern mixes and extraordinary designs, and the rugs, with their detailed patterns, bring a noble component to this playful look. They do not appear too dominant, but rather balance the variety of patterns and give the room a certain elegance without restricting the free, creative spirit of the style.

Moud rugs: high-quality and diverse Persian rugs

materials:

The pile of Moud rugs is made of densely spun fine new wool. This is often complemented by targeted silk accents. The warp and weft are usually made of cotton. This makes the rugs robust and at the same time beautifully soft. The silk gives them an attractive shine.

Colours:

The colour palette contains natural, earthy tones such as beige, lighter browns and cream, combined with strong contrasting colours such as blue, red and black. Yellow, peach, grey-blue, green and many other colours are used as decorative colours in the ornaments. The very clever use of the colour palette makes the Mouds look both discreet and expressive.

Knot density and fineness:

The knot density is on average between 250,000 and 450,000 knots per square metre. This means that they are already of a good fineness, which brings with it an impressive level of detail. Of course, there are also finer or coarser examples, but these are rather rare.

Sizes and formats:

Mouds come in all sizes, from small rugs measuring 150 x 100 cm, to medium-sized rugs measuring 240 x 170 cm, to room-filling sizes of 350 x 250 cm and up. Runners are also popular in 200 x 80 cm to 350 x 80 cm. The most popular size and therefore the most common in the range is 300 x 200 cm. The overwhelming majority are rectangular. Nevertheless, the graceful Herati patterns, in particular the rarer round and square formats, are highly sought after by enthusiasts.

Anyone who chooses a Moud rug will not be disappointed. The top quality and unique character of these rugs are truly convincing.
