Questions About Navajo Chief Blankets
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Navajo blankets are also known as “chief’s blankets”. They were referred to as such because in the days of trading, the blankets were so expensive that only the chiefs could afford them. You’ll find a variety of chief blankets from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A chief's blanket is a type of textile produced by the Navajo indigenous people. It usually features stripes and geometric forms in black and white colors. Some designs also include blue and red. The name comes from the fact that European traders usually only saw high-ranking members of tribes using them because they were luxury items among the Navajo. On 1stDibs, find a selection of chief's blankets.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    Navajo blankets are worth so much because they're extremely rare; only 50 of these first-phase blankets, which Ute Indians made until roughly 1865, survive today.
  • 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.
