Khotan / 16767

This Khotan antique rug measures 257 x 505 cm and shows a restrained field of warm ivory and tan, enclosed by faded red and brown borders with slender scrolling motifs. The design is finely balanced, leaving the centre open and luminous while the perimeter carries the visual cadence of floral and geometric detail. High distress is evident in the softened pile, worn passages, and frayed edges, all of which deepen the rug’s aged presence. Circa 1900 - 1930, it reflects the quiet tonal range and timeworn elegance often sought in a wool Khotan.
