A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. Still life depictions have always been popular in the oasis city of Khotan, where we find a red-rust field showcasing various vases in archaic styles, stacked books, dishes, and small pots, holding lotuses, Buddha's hand citron, and chrysanthemums. At the upper right, a Wheel of the Law fan is depicted. The putty-green border features pots, leaves, and flowers.
