Welcome to The Persian Knot Gallery
Curated Collection of Authentic 19th and The Early 20th Century Fine Handwoven Rugs, Tapestries and Textiles From Around the World
This vintage Native American Navajo area rug is a truly rare find, showcasing an exquisite and unusual Persian Blue background—a color seldom seen in traditional Navajo weavings. Woven circa the mid-1900s, the rug features a minimalist stripe pattern accented with narrow ivory and black bands, creating a striking contrast that enhances its refined aesthetic.
Crafted using the flat-weave technique, the rug is made from handwoven wool with a cotton foundation, consistent with traditional Navajo craftsmanship. The organic dyes used by Navajo weavers are derived from natural elements found near their tribal lands, contributing to the rich, enduring hues seen in this piece.
The geometric motifs and color symbolism in Navajo rugs are not only decorative but deeply cultural and spiritual, reflecting stories, beliefs, and sacred elements passed down through generations. This elegant rug is perfect as a collector’s item, a statement wall tapestry, or a refined floor accent in Southwestern, rustic, or modern interiors.
