About the Item
From the inception of weaving by the Navajos, circa 1700, weaving has provided an important economic benefit to the tribe and a fine outlet for their artistic talents. Navajo textiles were originally utilitarian blankets for use as cloaks, dresses, saddle blankets, and similar purposes. Toward the end of the 19th century, weavers began to make rugs for tourism and export. Their rugs are made in the weaver's home or Hogan on vertical looms using the same methods they have used for the past three hundred years. Typical Navajo textiles have strong geometric patterns like the one pictured here.
This one was purchased from Sotheby's New York in Fall 2005.
This one is a lovely example of Navajo weavings from the 1930s and measures 3.3 x 5.3 ft.
