About the Item

Khotan is an oasis city on the old Silk Road in what is now the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region of western China. Geographically and culturally closer to Central Asia than to Beijing, the city and region have a weaving tradition that goes back several centuries. This piece was once a longer runner and has been reduced to form a seating square. Eight-petaled flowers colored in tones of rose, blue, and cream float against a medium brown ground. A Chinese inspired fret-work guard border is drawn using two tones of rose and is encompassed by a frame of several plain blue, rose, and brown stripes. The outer main border, however, is perhaps the most noteworthy and dynamic formed by reciprocal half flowers mirroring the full floral elements of the field.

Antique Uzbek Suzani Embroidery Rug, c. 1800
Located in San Francisco, CA
Antique Uzbek Suzani Embroidery, c. 1800 Blending naturalism with ethereal fantasy, this spectacular embroidery or ‘suzani‘ from Central Asia conveys an aesthetic consistent with older examples of the genre. Certain features, most notably the vine-scroll, are reminiscent of the Samarkand school, while the drawing of the blossoms seems more prevalent in the repertoire of neighboring Shahrisabz. Indeed, this piece may in fact be a common ancestor to both. Splendid palmettes with flame-like tracery and bold swirling star-centered blossoms alternate within the border. Vegetal scroll meanders throughout—drawn with several shades of green conveying, if not a sense of shadowing, definite and deliberate tonalities of light and dark. The central hourglass form, idiosyncrasies of drawing, and arrangement of blossoms in the field imbue a sense of classicism rivaling and surpassing older Ottoman and Persian models. Embroidery Rug...
