Khotan / 16729

This Khotan antique rug, measuring 11' 7" x 15' 6", is defined by a deep charcoal field set against an orderly framework of ivory and cream ornament. Repeating medallions, small floral accents, and geometric corner details create a composed, architectural balance, while the border carries a quieter rhythm in pale tones and restrained colour shifts. The wool surface shows medium distress, with softened contrast and visible wear that lend the piece an atmospheric, lived-in presence. Circa 1900 - 1920, it holds the calm structure and subtle irregularity that make Khotan rugs so enduring.
