Circ1900 Germantown Navajo Blanket Native American Indian Blanket Navaho Rug Nr For Sale
Offered here is a circa 1900 sweet little Navaho
weaving that measures 3 feet 7 inches long by 1 foot 8 inches wide or 43” x 20”
and is in good to very good condition. It
was handwoven by an expert weaver on a primitive upright loom of all old
commercial 4-ply Germantown yarns on a cotton warp. This is a gorgeous little double concentric
serrated diamond eye dazzler Germantown.
The colors are bright and sharp with superb, fine execution. The size
speaks to being possibly an usual double sampler size. .
We obtained this vintage Native American textile on
a rug hunt in Arizona just to offer you here on . It has a fine, tight weft count averaging 38
per inch and a warp count of 7 per inch.
The selvage cords have 2” missing on one end and 2 breaks on the other
end, otherwise the rest of the cords are in excellent condition. Warp selvages are 2-spiral cords and weft
selvages are 2-spiral cords. The corners
are all four tight, original and in excellent condition. Three tassels are in
excellent condition and one is good but short to the knot. It has not been cleaned, is pretty clean now
& comes from a non-smoking home. There
is a 1 ½” x 1” bite out of the middle at one end. A reweave could be done to restore it nicely.
(we can suggest someone if you’d need a recommendation of who). Other than this bite damage from probably an
accidental source, this weaving is in great condition. 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: natural blended grey & white along with
aniline black, emerald green and red. This
example of Native Americana is ready to head your way.
