Khotan carpets originate from the oasis town of Khotan along the Silk Road in East Turkestan, blending Chinese, Tibetan, and Middle Eastern artistic influences in their distinct designs.

These carpets are traditionally hand-knotted using hand-spun wool for the pile, warp, and weft, often utilizing natural vegetable dyes to achieve enduring colours.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural wear patterns, irregularities consistent with hand-spinning and knotting, organic dye variations, and structural motifs characteristic of East Turkestan weaving traditions.

They serve as grounding focal points in contemporary spaces, pairing effectively with minimalist furniture or acting as textural contrast against polished concrete and neutral floors.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional conservation-grade cleaning when necessary, and protection from direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent dye fading.
