About this weaving

Beautiful Teec Nos Pos Rug by Master Weaver Berlinda Nez Barber - one of the very best contemporary weavers today.

This rug is made from custom spun, hand dyed Churro wool.  It has a very tight weave. This is Berlinda's first weaving for the Getzwiller Exclusive Navajo Churro Collection.  She began on Jan 30, 1996 and finished Christmas 1996.  Almost a year on the loom!  

Widely considered to be the most intricate and detailed of all Navajo rug designs, Teec Nos Pos Rugs offer a truly exceptional and distinct look. Named after a location important to the Navajo, this “Ring of Cottonwood Trees” has produced two distinct styles that have both long been influenced by the tightly-woven, brightly-colored Persian rugs of the Middle East. Large, bold and colorful, Teec Nos Pos boast a weaving unlike any other.

Berlinda is from the famous and talented Nez Family.  Her mother Grace, 6 sisters and niece are all award winning and highly respected Master Weavers.  Several of her weavings have been on exhibit at the Desert Caballeros Western Museum in Wickenburg, AZ. 

This weaving is featured in our "72" x 120" (6' x 10')" Exhibit at Nizhoni Ranch Gallery, March 2019 and the "Master Weavings of the Navajo Churro Collection" catalog, PAGE 18.

This weaving has been tucked away in the Getzwiller personal collection, as many of the Nez pieces have, since it was finished in 1996.  It is time for this piece to grace the home of a new owner.  First time offered - Jan 2022.
