Hotan is a city in the Xinjiang region that has given its name to a carpet style produced across Central Asia, including Afghanistan. Hotan carpets are characterised by bold geometric compositions, thick wool pile and natural vegetable dyes. The tradition shares roots with the broader Central Asian tribal weaving culture.
The multicolour palette of this large piece at 6 ft 4 in x 9 ft 5 in has the warm, varied character of Central Asian geometric production. The pattern is bold and direct, knotted at 81 knots per square inch in wool on cotton. The natural dyes will develop with age.
In your home: Works as the main floor piece in a sitting room or dining room. Pairs with natural timber, linen and organic influenced interiors. The geometric design suits rooms with architectural presence.
