  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    You can tell if a Native American blanket is real by looking for lazy lines. These are slight aberrations in the texture when the weaver moved position. You can also look at the ends — if there is double or triple warping with cotton, these are not authentic. Authentic blankets have a continuous warp that runs around, while the knock-offs will be cut and woven back in. Shop a collection of Native American blankets from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    To tell if a Navajo blanket or rug is real, examine the ends. On an authentic rug or blanket, the weaving is continuous. If the ends of the yarns appear tucked in, the item is not continuous and unlikely to be authentic. Find a range of expertly vetted Navajo blankets and rugs on 1stDibs.
