Khotan / 15521

This Khotan antique rug measures 5' 10" x 11' 4" and carries a softly worn field in pink, white, cream, and red. A central medallion anchors the composition, while delicate floral sprays and geometric forms unfold through the body, framed by layered borders with scrollwork and small-scale ornament. The palette has faded into a chalky, time-softened register that feels grounded and quiet. Medium distress adds depth without obscuring the design, and the overall effect is one of graceful age. Circa 1880 - 1900, this wool piece holds the balanced clarity and patina associated with a well-lived antique rug.
