Vintage Brilliantly Hued Lotus Blossom Tibetan Rug

About the Item

While Tibetan rugs of earlier generations were often the hardy production of nomads using simple geometry and thick pile, starting at about the turn of the century a new type of production emerged. At this time a new emphasis on more naturalistic drawing using bright colors appears. Traditional motifs from the plateau are adapted to a new style. This charming rug uses a characteristically Tibetan border and lotus blossoms but with an aesthetic that is unmistakably from the early 20th century.

  • Stunning Early 20th Century Khotan Rug from East Turkestan
    Located in San Francisco, CA
    Situated along the ancient Silk Roads running between China and Central Asia, Khotan is an oasis city in the region of East Turkestan in what is now Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous region in northwest China.

A central medallion is drawn in the center of an abstract field which actively combines a host of well-spaced floating motifs. Butterflies, shrubs and smaller floral forms are drawn spaciously spanning the area surrounding the medallion and in between two planted pots on either end of the field. Two borders derived from Chinese traditions frame the composition. With their pleasing light palette and spacious drawing, Khotan weavings...
