About the Item

A wonderful 1930s Chinese Khotan rug from East Turkistan with a salmon-pink field. The central ground features a series of stylized medallions and tree-of-life patterns. Specifically, a large cross medallion sits in the center, flanked by mirrored elements and four-lobed blossoms. The palette is completed by cream, earth brown, and deep magenta. The border structure is complex, consisting of a wide band with a repeating fretwork pattern and thinner guard stripes featuring rosettes and serrated leaves. Hand-knotted with hand-spun wool and natural dyes, the piece exhibits a weathered patina. Khotan rugs are prized for their unique blend of Chinese and Central Asian design elements, visible here in the combination of floral forms and rigid geometry. This balanced composition highlights the soft luster of the aged wool and the skill of the weaver.
