Curated Collection of Authentic 19th and The Early 20th Century Fine Handwoven Rugs, Tapestries and Textiles From Around the World
An exceptional example of Native American textile artistry, this vintage Navajo rug from the first half of the 20th century features the iconic "Eye Dazzler" pattern—a bold, visually captivating design synonymous with Navajo weaving tradition. Handwoven in the Southwestern United States, the rug showcases a radiant color palette of yellow, ivory, gray, and brown arranged in a dynamic, symmetrical composition set against a silver-gray ground. A brown and ivory border frames the piece, enhancing the geometric intricacy of the central motif.
Woven from hand-spun wool with a cotton foundation, this textile is a testament to the time-honored techniques passed down through generations of Navajo artisans. The dyes are derived from natural, organic materials native to the region, further enhancing the authenticity and integrity of the piece. Rich in symbolic meaning and cultural heritage, Navajo rugs often incorporate patterns tied to spirituality, cosmology, and tribal storytelling.
Originally used as tapestry wall art, this rug includes a hand-stitched display sleeve on the reverse, allowing for seamless installation using a tapestry rod. Though durable enough for floor use, its visual impact is especially suited for display as a statement wall hanging in refined interiors.
In excellent vintage condition with minimal wear, this Eye Dazzler rug is ideal for collectors, designers, and anyone seeking a one-of-a-kind artifact that celebrates the legacy of Indigenous American craftsmanship and design.
