Vintage Native American Navajo Rug 3'9 X 5'1

About the Item

Antique Native American Navajo Rug 3'9 X 5'1. Antique Navajos are usually in scatter sizes and larger, room size pieces are both extremely rare and highly desirable . As perpetually fashionable as they are collectible, traditional Navajo rugs, skillfully woven by members of the Native American Navajo tribe, are similar to Kilims and constructed using similar time-honored techniques. The native American Navajo tribe of New Mexico and Arizona was originally weaving wearing blankets in the early 19th century, but when they became settled on the reservation, they switched to rugs inspired by Caucasian pieces made available by the local traders. The strong and direct patterns are abstract and geometric, the rigorous color palette usually includes one or more natural sheep tones, and the technique is always a flat tapestry weave. Vintage Navajos give a properly informal touch to any room. Nothing is better with American Western décor. Probably Crystal Springs.

Vintage Native American Navajo Area Rug
Located in Barrington, IL
Beautifully preserved early 20th-century Navajo area rug, handwoven in the American Southwest, this piece is a striking example of traditional Navajo craftsmanship. The rug features a bold central medallion design, framed within a harmonious palette of oatmeal, warm brown, soft gray, and rich red, all derived from natural organic dyes. Executed with fine hand-spun wool on a cotton foundation, the rug boasts a high knot density and meticulous flat weave, indicative of the skill and care that went into its creation. The soft oatmeal ground provides a subtle yet elegant backdrop for the sharp, symbolic geometric motifs, which carry deep spiritual and cultural significance within Navajo tradition. This piece remains in original condition with some wear throughout. As with many Navajo textiles, the balance of color, symbolism, and technique results in a rug that is not only functional, but also highly collectible and decorative, ideally as wall art.
