1930s Churro Crystal Tp Navajo Rug Native American Indian Blanket Navaho Textile For Sale

---

Offered here is a circa ­1925-1935 Navaho weaving that measures 5 feet 3 inches long by 3 foot 6 inches wide or 63” x 42”. It is attributed to the Crystal Trading Post weaving area and is in excellent condition. It was handwoven by an expert weaver on a primitive upright loom of all Native handshorn, handcarded and finely handspun old smooth long staple Churro sheep wool, both weft & warp. Here is a very nice old Crystal weaving with just a splash of red to really set the piece off. The central concentric latch hook diamond is finished on each end with a red arrow point. Red is added to the short latchhook chains in each side field and 2 small red arrow points protrude from the central motif. The inner narrow black ribbon border is broken near one corner as a spirit escape way. Pepito sure likes it. (Burro not included in sale!)

We obtained this vintage Native American textile out of one of two big collections from Arizona just to offer you here on . It has a fine weft count averaging 30 per inch and a warp count of 7 per inch. The selvage cords are all in excellent condition with 3” replaced at 1 end and 4” replaced at 1 corner. Warp selvages are 2-spiral cords and weft selvages are 2-spiral cords. The corners are all four tight, original and in excellent condition. The tassels are: 2 restored & excellent condition and 2 original but short to the knot. It is pretty clean now & comes from a non-smoking home. Both sides are even in pattern color and shown in photos above. Colors are great in this piece of old American Indian art and they are: hand carded & hand blended natural brownish grey, ivory white & black along with hand dyed aniline cardinal red. Complete with lazy lines and a Spirit escape, this example of ­­antique Native Americana is ready to display in your own hacienda or just tuck away in your private rug & blanket collection.
