Moud or Mood is a
borough of South Khorasan's provincial
capital Birjand in Iran. Ferezmorgh is a
subdivision of the city. The last prince
of Birjand was Shah Seyyed Ali Kazemi
who came from Moud, a relative of the
emperor Shah Reza Pahlavi and the Prime
minister Asadollah Alam. The area is
known for Moud blankets and carpets that
have normally a curvilinear design with
a sun flower shaped picture in the
center. The production of such carpets
is usually high-quality. These carpets
are made of wool or cotton. They
attained their valuation by the decree
of the Persian Safavid emperor Shah
Abbas I, who not only arranged the
building of the fortresses in this
region, but also retained the original
Persian design styles and knot
techniques. |
