vintage Yei rug/weaving homespun wool brilliant colors vegetal dye 30x22in.. Condition is "Used"
This beautiful weaving was purchased from a family of Navajo weavers on their reservation in 1984. They told me all about the process of preparing the wool. They had samples of some of the plant materials used for the dyes.
I included a photo of the weave close up so you can see how finely and tightly it is. The primary background color seems almost variegated.This piece has never bee...n used as a rug. It spent some time on a wall but has been carefully covered and stored most of the time. It is in excellent condition.Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to see more photos.I will ship in a flat rate priority box via USPS.
