The Mousel (Mosul) design reflects a distinguished weaving tradition from the historic crossroads of Mesopotamia. Characterized by a striking interplay of geometric precision and floral grace, Mousel patterns feature rich, deeply saturated color fields and tightly structured compositions that convey both sophistication and cultural depth.

The composition is built upon a black ground, framed by a distinguished red border, creating a harmonious and visually compelling palette. As an authentic Persian piece, this rug carries the unmatched prestige and collectible value of its storied origin. Measuring 4'11" x 10'6" (approximately 52 sq. ft.), this hand-knotted rug is a testament to the skill and dedication of master weavers — a striking centerpiece for any discerning collector or design enthusiast.
