Antique Navajo American Gray 1925 Gray Rug, Circa Date: 1925. This exceptional example of American indigenous weaving represents the high point of the Navajo textile tradition. Its bold, graphic composition and limited palette make it a striking piece among antique rugs.

Woven circa 1925, the rug utilizes a striking combination of deep cochineal red, creamy white, and rich, earthy brown. The central field is dominated by subtle variations of taupe and gray color rugs, providing a sophisticated counterpoint to the vibrant red borders.

The design features a strong vertical axis composed of alternating hourglass and diamond forms, framed by serrated edges typical of the regional style. The repeating motifs create a dynamic, rhythmic flow, classifying the piece as an allover pattern despite its centralized elements.

Executed in a durable flat-weave technique, this piece retains remarkable integrity and color saturation for its age. Its dimensions position it perfectly as a versatile small scatter size, ideal for adding historical depth and graphic interest to a contemporary interior space. See less
