Antique Khotan East Turkestan Coral 1900s Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional piece belongs to the tradition of East Turkestan weaving, characterized by its striking color palette and distinctive, often symbolic, motifs. Such textiles are highly sought after among collectors for their unique blend of Chinese and nomadic Central Asian influences, placing this example firmly within the lineage of superior khotan rugs. The field is saturated in a magnificent, sun-faded coral hue, a color rarely achieved with such depth and warmth in later productions. This brilliant background provides a stunning contrast to the secondary tones of aubergine, pale cream, and deep espresso used in the complex border system. The masterful use of this vibrant shade, which shifts subtly across the wool, places it among the finest examples of coral color rugs from the period.
