Chief’s Blanket Second Phase Rug Alfonzo Santiago
This is an excellent handwoven flat weave rug by master weaver Alfonzo Santiago using 100% soft fine Churro Wool yarns in an outstanding Second Phase Chief’s Blanket pattern. Churro wool is a time-tested fiber that is both strong and soft along with providing a vibrant base for rich colors from color fast Aniline Dyes. Tight handwoven weave showing bright rich colors in the fine Second Phase Chief’s Blanket (2nd Phase) pattern in the time-honored Zapotec multi-generational craft by a master weaver, Alfonzo Santiago. This incredible example shows Alfonzo’s traditional interpretation of the 2nd Phase blanket with rich rectangular indigo blue boxes atop a stiped background in red, blues and white (heathered grey / tan). The piece is in brand new condition with fine tight weave. The rug measures 2’ 6” by 5’ (2 foot 6 inches by five foot).
