North American has never developed a unified handmade rug tradition, but rather it is the unassimilated confluence of several. From Mexico comes the Saltillo serape wearing blanket, and this stimulates the Navajo and Rio Grande (Colorado) weavers, first as blankets, then as rugs. The thrifty habits of rural America gave rise to the New England (and Western Canadian) hooked rug types, while the farmers of the Midwest recycled their disused garments into braided and rag rugs.
The closest to a real ongoing tradition are the Southwestern (New Mexican) Navajo rugs. By the 1860’s the native tribes were weaving wearing blankets with wool from the Spanish churro sheep. These were in stripe design, with combinations of undyed wool with cochineal reds and indigo blues. The multi-phase “Chief’s Blankets” from the 1870’s-80’s are a natural outgrowth of these. Machine spun red wool from Germantown in Pennsylvania appeared in the 1870’s with a bright red hitherto unobtainable. The weavers loved it and blankets appeared with bright reds, generally aniline, in “eye dazzler” patterns. Anglo traders established posts beginning in the 1890’s. Navajo weavings were perfect accompaniments not only for Western-themed decors, but for East Coast apartments, only they needed to be thicker and more rug like to be truly accepted. The traders brought Caucasian and Turkish village rugs to copy, borders were introduced and central medallions devised. The weavers continued to create on vertical looms, with a shared warp (dovetailing) weft structure to avoid slits. The warps were cotton string. Sizes were generally scatters, but occasionally a special order came in, hence antique room size Navajos are very rare and very pricey. Distinct village/pueblo styles developed. Among the best are: Two Grey Hills (considered the tightest, closest of all Navajo weaving), Crystal Springs and Ganado. Certain new patterns such as the “Storm pattern” with jagged lightning bolts emanating from a dark cloud developed. The Yei rug with dancing Kachina doll figures became popular. The palette has been expanded beyond the classic grey, tan, dark brown and cream natural wool combination to again include reds, blue and greens. Navajo pictorials include: American flags, trains and automobiles, domestic and local scenes and scenery. Individual artist weavers now command gallery shows and correspondingly elevated prices. There are several levels of Navajo work, and antique and vintage scatters with simple flat designs, medium weaves and tritonal palettes, and in good floor worthy condition are still available reasonably.
The Native American weaving tradition extends into Colorado with two piece scatters with sharp sawtooth medallions and striped end borders, with wool tapestry weave on cotton warps. These descend from the Saltillo blankets...

Vintage Native American Navajo Pictorial Tree of Life
Located in Barrington, IL
This wonderfully simple yet deeply beautiful vintage Navajo rug features the iconic Tree of Life design—a powerful symbol in Navajo culture representing growth, connection, and harmony between the earth and the spiritual world.
Set against a soft ivory background, the central tree motif rises from the land toward the heavens, its branches gracefully adorned with colorful birds, each one unique in hue and form. The design is framed by a striking turquoise inner border and a grounding brown outer border, creating a balanced and visually compelling composition.
Woven flat with hand-spun wool and a cotton foundation, this rug exemplifies the time-honored techniques of Navajo textile artistry. The weavers employ natural, plant-based dyes sourced from the land around their tribal communities, ensuring that each piece is both organic and deeply rooted in place.
More than a textile, this rug is a cultural statement—rich in symbolism and spirit. Its refined aesthetic and meaningful design make it an ideal choice for use as a wall tapestry or as a centerpiece in any thoughtfully curated space.
Dimensions: 27” x 40”
Date of Manufacture: 3rd Quarter of the 1900s

Antique Mexican Saltillo Serape Flat-Woven Kilim in Royal Blue, Red, Ivory
Located in Barrington, IL
This vintage Mexican Saltillo Serape, woven circa the late 19th to early 20th century, is a striking example of northern Mexican textile artistry from the Coahuila region. Crafted using traditional flat-woven kilim techniques, this historic piece features the signature “royal blue” background, accented with vibrant red, black, ivory, and tan design elements.
At the heart of the serape lies a large lozenge-shaped central medallion, intricately woven and flanked by four smaller medallions, each contributing to the balanced and rhythmic Saltillo design. This textile remains in original condition, showing signs of age-related wear that speak to its authenticity and storied past—while still preserving its vivid colors and intricate patterns.
A display sleeve has been sewn onto the back, allowing for easy installation as wall art or tapestry. Whether displayed in a Southwestern, boho, or historic interior, this antique serape offers a rare opportunity to own a museum-worthy textile with deep cultural roots and timeless aesthetic appeal.

Vintage Navajo Wool Rug with Wide Band Pattern in Ivory, Rust, Purple & Yellow
Located in Barrington, IL
This vintage Navajo area rug, handwoven in the late 20th century, is a striking example of Native American textile artistry, showcasing a distinctive wide band pattern in an earthy yet vibrant palette of ivory, rust, purple, and yellow. The composition blends traditional symbolism with bold visual rhythm, reflecting the enduring cultural and spiritual heritage of the Navajo Nation.
Crafted using time-honored flat-weave techniques, the rug features a wool body on a cotton foundation, a hallmark of authentic Navajo weaving. The geometric design elements are not merely decorative—they often carry deep spiritual and cultural significance, passed down through generations of Navajo artisans.
Dyes are traditionally sourced from the natural environment surrounding the tribal lands, resulting in richly nuanced colors achieved through plant-based and mineral pigments. This thoughtful use of natural materials enhances both the beauty and integrity of the piece.
Highly collectible and visually compelling, this rug serves equally well as a statement floor covering or as a wall-mounted textile in a curated interior. It is an exceptional addition for collectors, designers, and admirers of indigenous American craftsmanship and Southwestern design.
