Khotan / 16949

This Khotan antique rug, 135 x 254 cm, is woven in wool and shows a gently worn surface that lends depth to its faded palette. The composition centres on a large medallion, with geometric corner elements and layered borders tracing the field in red, neutral, cream, and white. Soft abrasion and overall patina have blurred the pattern in places, leaving a tactile, timeworn character across the rug. Circa 1925 - 1945, it speaks to the quiet symmetry and heritage-informed design language associated with Khotan rugs. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
