About the Item

This circa 1930s Navajo double saddle blanket is a striking example of early 20th-century Native American weaving. Handwoven in double-faced twill, the blanket features handspun wool in natural fleece tones of brown, black, and ivory, showcasing an elegant abstract geometric pattern. One side presents a white field, while the reverse displays a contrasting black field, demonstrating the weaver’s technical mastery and attention to design symmetry. The combination of natural colors, durable handspun fibers, and precise weaving makes this blanket both a functional textile and a collectible work of art. A rare and authentic example of Navajo weaving from the 1930s, this double saddle blanket highlights the craftsmanship, artistry, and cultural heritage of the Navajo people, making it an exceptional addition for collectors of Native American textiles.
