Khotan / 16437

This Khotan antique rug in wool measures 107 x 178 cm and carries a hushed composition in cream, white, and warm tan. Octagonal medallions sit within a softly open field, punctuated by delicate floral sprays and enclosed by borders that balance meander and botanical detail. The surface shows gentle fading and medium wear, which soften the contrast and lend the piece an easy, aged character. Circa 1925 - 1945, it offers the measured geometry and quiet ornament often associated with Khotan weaving, expressed here with a light, understated palette. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
