This vintage Native American Navajo area rug, woven circa the third quarter of the 20th century, showcases traditional Southwestern craftsmanship with a warm tan background and vibrant narrow bands in red, burgundy, green, and ivory. A striking stair-step geometric pattern in deep brown/black creates bold visual contrast and adds depth to the design.
Handwoven using flat-weave techniques, the rug features a wool body on a cotton foundation, consistent with classic Navajo textile traditions. The dyes used are natural and organic, sourced from the local environment surrounding Navajo tribal lands—resulting in rich, earthy tones with lasting beauty.
