Vintage Native American Indian Navajo Saddle Blanket in Red, Brown & Caramel
Located in Barrington, IL
This vintage Navajo saddle blanket, handwoven in the mid-20th century, features a distinctive wide band pattern in warm, earthy hues of red, brown, and caramel, beautifully set against a soft taupe background. The design, reminiscent of traditional Navajo Corn Husk bags, reflects the enduring artistry and symbolic expression central to Navajo weaving traditions. Crafted using the classic flat-weave technique, the piece is made from wool on a cotton foundation—an authentic construction method characteristic of Navajo textiles. The weavers employed natural, plant- and mineral-based dyes, sourced from their surrounding environment, to achieve the rich, organic color palette. The banded geometric pattern is both visually balanced and culturally meaningful, with design elements often rooted in spiritual symbolism and tribal storytelling. Originally intended as a saddle blanket, this textile easily transitions into a decorative floor covering or wall-mounted art piece, making it a versatile addition to any collector’s or designer’s curated space. Ideal for admirers of Native American craftsmanship, Southwestern aesthetics, and heritage textiles, this rug is a beautifully preserved representation of indigenous American artistry. Dimensions: 2’ 5” x 2’ 7” Date of Manufacture: 3rd Quarter of the 1900s Place of Origin: SW America Material: Wool on a cotton foundation with natural dyes Condition: Wear consistent with ager and use The Persian Knot Gallery, SKU 1653 Navajo Saddle Blanket, Navajo Rugs, Handwoven Rugs, Vintage Artisan Rugs, Antique Handmade Rugs, Sustainability, Allover Design Rug, Vintage American Folk Art, Native American Rugs, Americana, Native American Tribal Rugs, Two Gray Hills Rugs, Saddle Blankets, Native American Folk Art, Vintage Navajo Kilim Rugs, Native American Beadwork, Eye Dazzler, Vintage Navajo Blanket...
