Khotan / 20586

This Khotan antique rug measures 6' 1" x 11' 9" and presents a quietly faded composition in wool. The field is softened by age, with scattered round floral motifs drifting across a layered ground in red, neutral, white, and cream. Multiple borders frame the design, including a narrow floral edge that keeps the layout grounded while the interior remains airy and worn. The surface shows medium distress and a pleasing, time-softened texture that gives the piece depth without overwhelming its restraint. Circa 1885 - 1900, it carries the refined, understated rhythm that defines the Khotan tradition.
