Moosa Khani موسیخانی
Moosa Khani (موسیخانی) is a design of Sirjan Afshar rugs named after its main motif, the gol-e Musa Khani: a flower built up from geometric shapes, usually repeated two or more times down the field, with small plants and animals around it. One writer takes the flower for a geometric gol farang, or cabbage rose. Where the name comes from is not known.
