Khotan / 20572

This Khotan antique rug measures 61 x 127 cm and carries a tall, lyrical tree-of-life composition within a narrow floral border. A cream ground is layered with burgundy branches, muted blue stems, and warm brown detailing, giving the design a calm but expressive presence. Small botanical motifs repeat across the field in a measured rhythm, while the border adds a darker, intricate frame. Circa 1900 - 1930, the wool surface shows low distress, with gentle fading and soft edge wear that contribute to its quietly worn character. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
