Early 20th Century American Navajo Carpet ( 4' x 5'8" - 122 x 173 )
Antique Navajo American Flat Weave Rug distinctive, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional example of American textile art represents the peak of the Navajo weaving tradition in the early 20th century. Its flat-woven structure provides a durable, low-profile texture, making it a highly desirable piece among antique rugs collectors worldwide.
The palette is masterfully balanced, utilizing the natural, heathered tones of the wool, particularly the deep, variegated gray color rugs that form the field. This neutral foundation is dramatically offset by sharp black outlines and bold, saturated squares of terracotta orange, typical of the dyes available during this period.
The design features a powerful, centralized composition of stepped diamonds and zigzag meanders. While the primary focus is central, the geometric elements repeat and interlock across the entire surface, creating an energetic allover rugs visual effect contained within a triple banded border.
Woven in a versatile format, this piece functions perfectly as a striking accent textile. Its dimensions classify it among small scatter size rugs, ideal for placement in an entryway, beside a hearth, or as a vibrant wall hanging, offering a profound statement of Southwestern history and design integrity.
