Unique Turkish Double-knotted Blue Khotan Hand-knotted Wool Area Rug (9′ x 12′)

Description

Khotan are unique hand knotted rugs that were first created in the ancient city of Khotan (Hotan), which is located in the southern Uygur Autonomous Region of Xinjiang (Chinese Turkistan). Khotan also gained the name Samarkand rugs after the Central Asian trading center. The rug is made of the combination of Chinese details and Center Asian design with Western vivid coloring; however, now the colors look more washed out pastels because of the recent use of vegetable dyes. There has been an influence of using all-silk by earlier Persian carpets; however, the decoration usually consists of lattice designs of clustered rosettes and sometimes use pictorial design. On the wool rugs, similar designs have been used with triple-medallion schemes in blue on red (or vice versa). There also has been little vases that have pomegranate vine growing from them, and other designs. Khotan rugs’ border could have Chinese waves and fret patters, flowering vines or be plain.Material: WoolStyle: TraditionalPattern: Oriental, FloralWeave Type: Hand-Knotted, HandmadeRug Type: Indoor/Outdoor, IndoorFeature: Latex FreeRug Size: 9′ x 12’Shape: RectangleColor: BluePlease note: Options of excessive weight or bulk will be shipped via Freight carrier and our Oversized Item Delivery/Return policy will apply.
