Antique Navajo Rug Yei Navajo Rare Human Geometric Handmade Wool Ivory, 1940
Located in New York, NY
Navajo rug flat woven rug tapestry beige
Measures: 4' x6' (3'11" x 5'7")
119cm x 170cm
Circa 1920
"The woolen rug has a white background color on which are three stylized figures on each side of a center cornstalk. All are surrounded on three sides by a "guardian "figure - one side is the head and the body - the other side are the legs. The rug is a Navajo Yei rug. All the figures are holding prayer sticks; there are feathers attached to the elbows of the figures in a vertical line. The colors of the rug are white, red, maroon, blue, tan, brown, grey, orange, rust and gold. The most common type of Navajo Yei rug are those with a white background color. Navajo Yei rugs were made at Lukachukai or in the Shiprock area or even Ganado. It is a fact that a Navajo Yei rug with many Yei figures and many colors will garner the highest value.
While Yei rugs are technically woven for the floor, they were often placed on couches, or hung on the wall like paintings, few actually touched the ground. The Yei figure is a frequently used pattern in Navajo rugs. Male Yei figures are generally pictured with round heads, and female Yei figures with square heads.
Modern Yei rugs are more often pictorial compositions, showing a row of front-facing stylized stick figures with a Rainbow Guardian which protects the figures on three sides, indicating the sand painting roots of this particular style. The Yei rug portrays ceremonies on a desire for healing, not only physical health, but also mental, spiritual, and even material well-being.

Pacific Northwest Tlingit Whale House Rain Wall from Donald Judd Estate, c. 1968
Located in Ft Lauderdale, FL
Pacific Northwest Tlingit whale house rain wall from Donald Judd Estate c. 1968
A monumental polychrome and carved cedar eleven panel Tlingit Whale House Rain Wall (Raven clan, Chilkat tribe) produced by Northwest Coast Tlingit artist Chief Don Lelooska Smith in the traditional Kwakiutl-style for modern artist Donald Judd. The entire screen is a masterful composition and one by which to measure other Northwest Coast screens.
Filling the top and side borders are a series of thirteen figures, nine of them with limbs placed in a traditional stance with elbows close to the knees (typical in Northwest Coast tribal paintings.) The figures represent the rain drops from which the screen takes its name. The central figure represents a Raven whose body cavity contains the oval form which encompasses the screen opening. The Raven embodies the Northwest tribal myths as the creator of the world.
A near-exact replica of the world famous Raven clan 'Whale House' Rain Wall, Klukwan, Alaska c. 1800's, this piece along with a pair of totems and a feast bowl...
