Khotan / 14317

This Khotan antique rug measures 5' 0" x 10' 9" and presents a quiet, elongated field with two restrained medallions, corner spandrels, and a series of finely drawn borders. The wool pile has aged into a nuanced brown, cream, and neutral palette, with softened linework and a gentle fade that lends the surface depth. Circa 1900 - 1920, the composition feels balanced and spare, with floral details that read subtly rather than brightly. Medium wear is visible throughout, adding to the rug’s grounded, timeworn character without obscuring its structure. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
