Khotan / 11682

An elegant Khotan of restrained scale, this 5' 6" x 11' 4" wool rug presents a softened neutral ground punctuated by a faded central medallion and delicate, geometric-floral motifs. A single primary border with hooked-scroll accents frames the field, its brown outlines and cream highlights softened by time. Visible abrash and medium, even wear reveal layered dye and a tactile, low surface that reads like collected textile history. The composition retains composure and quiet symmetry while the surface carries the patina of age; this antique rug balances structure with a lived, material warmth. Circa 1900 - 1920
