Additional rug details:
This is a Navajo Yei rug, which features stylized depictions of the Navajo Yei deities or holy people.
Yei rugs are inspired by actual Navajo sandpaintings performed during cultural ceremonies.
Weavers depict only certain elements they choose to share, rather than duplicating entire sacred images.
The rug features stylized figures in earth tones of brown, gold, and white.
Navajo textiles are highly regarded and have been sought after as trade items for more than 150 years.
