Khotan / 18536

This Khotan antique rug, measuring 6' 0" x 11' 3", carries a softly faded palette of celadon, blush, sand, and muted gold across a refined geometric-floral composition. The central medallion is framed by corner devices and layered borders, including a repeating fret band and floral outer edge, creating balance without stiffness. Wool lends a quiet, tactile hand, while the medium distress gives the surface an aged luminosity and softened definition. Circa 1900 - 1930, it reflects the serene ornament and restrained colour typical of the Khotan tradition, with visible wear that deepens its character.
