Silk Khotan / 15710

This Silk Khotan antique rug, 12' 7" x 14' 0", carries a quietly luminous field in cream, red, and softened neutral tones. Scattered floral and geometric motifs drift across the open composition, while a layered border in rusted rose and muted red gives the piece its frame. The silk surface has a gentle sheen and a low-distress finish, with visible fading that softens the design language without obscuring it. Circa 1900 - 1915, it reflects the restrained elegance and ornamental balance associated with Silk Khotan weaving. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
