Vintage Khotan Floral Classic Taupe Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB7003 6'0" × 8'8" $17,000

This vintage hand-knotted wool Khotan rug from East Turkestan reflects the refined weaving tradition of the Samarkand and Khotan region in a warm taupe palette, with the softly aged surface and measured balance of a well-preserved vintage carpet.

The field is arranged in a regular repeat of stylized tree-like floral devices, each built from angular stems, small square blossoms, and rounded medallion forms. That repetition gives the composition an architectural clarity, while the botanical infill keeps the geometry from feeling rigid. Light beige accents sharpen the motifs against the darker ground and add subtle depth.

Layered borders reinforce the structure with zigzags, fretwork, lattice, and diagonal bands, creating crisp definition around the central field. The result is a Khotan rug with quiet movement and historic character, one that introduces texture and visual order without overwhelming a room. It is especially well suited to transitional, organic, or collected interiors.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this vintage rug carries the distinct character and artisanal soul that the gallery has championed for decades. With an unrivaled selection spanning eras, origins, and price points, Doris Leslie Blau continues to make fine carpet art accessible to designers and collectors worldwide.
