About the Item

This large vintage Navajo area rug, handwoven in the 1930s by a skilled Diné (Navajo) weaver, originates from the historic Hubbell Trading Post in Ganado, Arizona—a renowned hub of Navajo textile artistry in the American Southwest. Crafted from native hand-spun wool, the rug features a rich palette of natural fleece tones, including brown, black, ivory, white, and gray, beautifully accented with vibrant aniline-dyed red. Its bold geometric design expertly blends traditional Navajo aesthetics with harmonious earth tones, creating a visually captivating and culturally meaningful textile. An authentic example of early 20th-century Southwestern weaving, this Navajo rug offers versatility as both a striking area rug and a dramatic wall hanging. It embodies the sophisticated craftsmanship and deep cultural heritage of the Diné people, whose weaving traditions have been passed down through generations. The textile remains in very good vintage condition, preserving its original vibrancy and structural integrity—making it a valuable addition for collectors, interior designers, and enthusiasts of Native American art and Southwestern decor.
