Khotan / 16695

This Khotan antique rug, measuring 155 x 305 cm, presents a balanced field of geometric pattern softened by age. Wool in brown, cream, grey, and muted pink creates an orderly lattice of floral and medallion-like motifs, held within a framed border and slim guard bands. The pile shows medium distress, with visible fading and worn character that temper the contrast and give the surface a subdued, tactile quality. Circa 1900 - 1930, it has the restrained rhythm and timeworn presence associated with a well-kept antique rug. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
