This exceptional historical panel features a striking four-fold symmetrical composition centered on a prominent "Spider Woman" cross—a sacred ancestral emblem honoring the deity who traditionally gifted the art of weaving to the Diné people. Radiating outward from this spiritual axis are intricate, stepped diamond patterns and dynamic lightning chevrons, all beautifully framed by a bold, dark geometric border.

True to the strict standards of the Two Grey Hills regional style, this textile is rendered in a completely natural, un-dyed palette. The master weaver meticulously hand-carded and blended diverse white, brown, grey, and black sheep’s fleeces to achieve the rug's complex, earth-toned gradients and visual depth.

The textile has been professionally stretched and mounted over a clean, 1.75-inch-deep custom wooden liner frame, transforming it into a high-impact, gallery-ready piece of structural wall art.

Dimensions: 49.5 x 74.75 x 1.75 inches.
