This antique Khotan rug from East Turkestan, circa 1930, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind textile distinguished by its luminous pink field and finely drawn all-over patterning. Its hand-knotted construction and softly aged palette showcase the elegant balance of geometric and floral elements that make Khotan rugs so collectible, while the layered border and gentle wear give it exceptional decorative character.
