Khotan / 14539

This Khotan antique rug measures 269 x 541 cm and has a quietly weathered character in wool. Its field opens with an orderly mix of floral and geometric motifs, small medallions, and fine linear ornament, all held within an intricate border system that adds rhythm and balance. Warm brown, cream, and beige dominate, while faint blue-grey accents cool the surface in places. Medium distress lends a softened finish, with visible fading and age-rich wear across the field. Circa 1900 - 1930, it reads as measured, tactile, and elegantly restrained. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
