Vintage Khotan Rug in Red with Rare Pictorial Design - Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Made with hand-knotted wool and originating from Turkey circa 1940, this 6x9 Vintage Khotan rug is the next great addition to Rug & Kilim’s repertoire of antique Oriental creations. On the Design: Admirers of the craft will recognize this Khotan among those of a particular Chinese influence to its design, especially in the notably charming pictorial in its field, which hosts a variety of gorgeous images from vases and teapots to country gardening tools, a Penjing tree, and even a depiction of a chinese lute. Central to the design is a flowering prunus branch emerging from a geometric vase, flanked by precisely depicted cultural implements including a penjing (bonsai) container, stringed instrument, stacked books, and various vessels. The pale sage-green border contains stylized floral motifs interspersed with distinct yellow tulip forms arranged in quaternary symmetry, in warm and bright hues of a particularly elegant, yet whimsical nature, exemplary of the sensibility that makes such Khotans of this style so sought-after today. Notable aspects include the deliberate flattening of perspective and the use of compartmentalized color blocks to define individual objects. The design employs a palette dominated by cinnabar red, celadon green, pale yellow, and selective blue accents. Keen eyes for detail shall admire the cultural syncretism characteristic of Khotan production, blending Islamic Central Asian weaving traditions with Chinese decorative motifs and iconography. Condition: This Vintage Khotan rug further enjoys an overall good condition f
