30s Churro CRYSTAL NAVAJO RUG Native American Indian blanket Weaving Textile NR 

Offered here is a circa 1930s, good old Navaho weaving that measures 5 feet 5 inches long by 4 foot 3 inches wide or 65” x 51”.  It is attributed to the Crystal Trading Post weaving area and is in excellent condition.  It was woven by an expert weaver on a primitive upright loom of all Native hand shorn, hand carded and nicely handspun long staple Churro sheep wool, both weft & warp.  The design is a nice simple yet large bold red & black chevrons all pointing towards the center of the pale gray field.  The border is a nice old terraced or stepped red, black and white meandering motif.  A very nice old rug with No Reserve.

This vintage Native American textile is fresh out of one of two large Colorado Springs collections we obtained just to offer you here on eBay.  It has a nice, even weft count averaging 20 per inch and a warp count of 7 per inch.  The selvage cords are 100% original, complete and in excellent condition.  Warp selvages are 2-spiral cords and weft selvages are 2-spiral cords.  All four corners are tight, original and in excellent condition.  All four tassels are original and in excellent condition.  No bleed, no holes, no odors, no moth nibbles, no fade, it is pretty clean and comes from a non-smoking home.  Both sides are even in color and shown in photos above.  Colors in this piece of old American Indian art are excellent and are hand blended & carded natural black & ivory white along with hand dyed turkey red and a very pale grey either from weak after-bath black or vegetal dyed from Indian Paint Brush.  Complete with lazy lines, this example of antique Native Americana is ready to display in your own hacienda or just tuck away in your private rug & blanket collection.  (1551)
