Khotan / 16417

This Khotan antique rug measures 145 x 264 cm and presents a muted palette of blush pink, ivory, taupe, and soft red. The composition is relaxed yet orderly, with a pale central field marked by floral medallions and a series of scrolling, geometric borders that frame the surface with restraint. Woven in wool, it shows medium wear, with gentle fading and softened detail that speak to its age. Circa 1885 - 1900, it has the hushed, timeworn presence that gives Khotan rugs their enduring character. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
