About this weaving
Crystal Navajo Rug. Great variegation in the natural wool colors especially the natural grey and brown. All hand carded, hand-dyed, hand-spun native wool. Hero Twin design in the center. Lightning bolts shoot out from all sides, saw-tooth lines adorn each corner, and a fierce brown and red step border. This makes sense because of the Hero Twin emergence Story, as they were the Monster Slayers, helping the Navajo Emerge from the under world.
The weaver did an excellent job of spinning the wool. It is super tight and in excellent condition. It will still make an excellent floor rug today!
Almost 100 years old - you would never know it!!!
