This Khotan antique rug measures 4' 3" x 8' 9" and presents a softly worn field in cream, ivory, muted red, and faded grey. A sequence of elongated medallions runs through the centre, balanced by geometric floral accents and a layered border with diagonal stripe detail. The wool pile shows medium distress, with mellow fading that has softened the palette into a quiet, timeworn harmony. Circa 1880 - 1910, it carries the restrained elegance and graphic clarity that make Khotan rugs so enduring. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
