Native American Moroccan and North African Rugs
NATIVE AMERICAN STYLE
Native American broadly describes any Indigenous people in North America and encompasses hundreds of tribes and groups, all with distinct cultures. Native American–style furniture and decor likewise varies widely, from pieces created by Indigenous people to those appropriated by non-native designers.
Indigenous furniture’s rich heritage includes the bentwood boxes of the Northwest Coast carved from cedar for storing household or ceremonial objects. Generations of Native American people have made baskets for holding household items, with those in the Northeast using sweetgrass and those in the Southeast using pine needles and wicker. Artisans in the Plateau region wove watertight pieces like cradles from plant materials. Although these objects were intricately made, they were usually utilitarian rather than decorative.
The colonization of North America and the removal of Indigenous people from their lands led to the suppression of these practices. Many styles that used Native American motifs — such as Southwestern style, which was heavily influenced by the geometric patterns of Navajo textiles — have historically not involved Indigenous creators and, instead, have taken their traditions without their tribal context.
When decorating a home with Native American–style furniture, it is important to do so respectfully, by understanding the origins of motifs and objects and examining who profits from their sale. There are now Indigenous-led companies, such as Cherokee designer Cray Bauxmont-Flynn’s Amatoya and Totem House Design, promoting Indigenous work in furniture and home decor. Supporting Indigenous artists and artisans is essential to confronting the still pervasive issue of cultural appropriation in design.

Vintage American Navajo Rug in Storm Pattern in Maroon, Black, Gray, Ivory
Located in Barrington, IL
A striking example of mid-20th century Native American textile artistry, this vintage Navajo rug from the American Southwest features the revered Storm Pattern, a sacred and culturally significant motif within Navajo weaving traditions. Handwoven in wool on a cotton foundation, this flat-weave textile showcases the signature craftsmanship and spiritual symbolism passed down through generations of Navajo artisans.
Set against a rich maroon-red ground, two powerful medallions in ivory, gray, and black form a bold visual axis, creating an “eye-dazzler” effect emblematic of the style. The precise geometry and rhythmic symmetry of the design echo the natural harmony and cosmological beliefs central to Navajo culture.
Crafted using hand-dyed, natural pigments sourced from the land—such as vegetal, mineral, and sometimes insect-based dyes—this rug embodies a deep connection between material, maker, and environment. Its balanced palette and dynamic composition make it equally suited for display as a wall hanging or as a floor covering in a sophisticated, collector-level interior.
Whether appreciated for its cultural significance, decorative power, or artisanal technique, this Navajo Storm Pattern rug is a remarkable and authentic artifact of Indigenous American design.
