Handwoven from native hand-spun wool, this rug exemplifies the elegance and cultural depth of Southwestern textile traditions.

The design follows a classic banded Chinle layout, a regional design style that originated in the 1920s in Chinle, Arizona, near the sacred Canyon de Chelly. The rug design has alternating horizontal stripes in earth-toned hues of cornmeal yellow, soft cream, warm brown, black, gray, and ivory. The repeating geometric motifs are rich with symbolic meaning, reflecting the weaver�s deep connection to the land, heritage, and spirituality.

Executed with a flat weave construction, this piece is crafted from wool on a typical cotton foundation, showcasing both strength and subtle refinement. The use of natural organic dyes, sourced from local plants and minerals, lends the rug a muted, harmonious color palette that feels at once grounded and timeless.
