Antique Khotan Oriental Rug, late nineteenth centuryThis carpet epitomizes the classic formality and grace of the finest antique Khotans. Groups of c-shaped volutes make up a trellis of openwork medallions that repeat rhythmically across the rich paprika ground. The complex system of three sandy gold cloudband and rosette borders contrasts effectively with the more finely wrought design of the field.
