Khotan / 12948

This Khotan antique rug measures 147 x 287 cm and is worked in wool with a softened palette of red, pink, and neutral tones. The composition centres on a medallion field with floral and geometric motifs, stepped corner devices, and layered borders that bring definition to the design. Low distress is visible as even fading and light surface wear, giving the rug a calm, time-worn presence rather than sharp contrast. Circa 1900 - 1930, it reflects the measured symmetry and decorative clarity that distinguish a Khotan antique rug. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
