Khotan / 18851

This Khotan antique rug measures 5' 2" x 9' 7" and carries a softly worn, architectural presence. A dark, time-softened field is framed by pale borders and a faded outer band in brick red and taupe, while layered floral and scrolling motifs emerge and dissolve across the surface. The composition feels restrained yet ornate, with the wear lending depth to the design rather than diminishing it. Circa 1900 - 1920, it reflects the patina and quiet symmetry that make Khotan rugs so enduring. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
