A measured balance of colour and restraint, this Khotan is handwoven in wool with a muted grey ground set against a warm red border. Stylised medallions, palmettes and delicate floral sprays are arranged with an airy, almost modern rhythm, the palette of neutral, red, cream and white toned by subtle abrash. Low distress preserves a soft, tactile surface and quiet aged depth. This antique rug reads like a well-loved textile, its composition and faded hues reflecting careful use and time. Circa 1900 - 1930. Dimensions: 4' 0" x 8' 4".
