Antique Allover Geometric Wool Hand Knotted Pile Purple / Lavender Mauve 1930s East Turkestan Khotan Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional example of antique rugs captures the restrained elegance of early 20th-century weaving. The hand-knotted wool pile exhibits a rich texture and subtle variations in color, characteristic of pieces created during this period of transition in textile art. The complex coloration features a primary field rendered in deep, oxidized tones of gray and brown, subtly shifting toward the specified purple / lavender mauve palette. This sophisticated use of color is balanced by the pronounced grid structure, which divides the composition into eight distinct geometric panels, each containing stylized medallions and traditional motifs.
