Khotan / 16600

This Khotan antique rug, 157 x 254 cm, is worked in a gentle palette of cream, beige, brown, and muted grey, with a faint blush note in the worn field. A stepped diamond medallion leads the composition, while the borders carry compact floral and geometric motifs with a softened, weathered clarity. Circa 1900 - 1935, the rug presents high distress, including visible fading, surface wear, and a patched lower corner that speaks to its lived history. The overall effect is quietly layered, with design details that remain readable beneath the patina.
