This dark blue, red and black eye dazzler was made by Navajo wear Frances Davis for Russell Foutz`s Indian Room. Foutz was born in 1914 in Fruitland and was considered to be the most prominent promoter of Navajo goods in New Mexico. This rug measures 59" x 68" and has some slight bleeds with the red dye.
