This item is a Navajo Native American Indian mohair rug. The rug has a central polychrome geometric design, showing a stepped, and repeating, symmetrical diamond motif. The khaki base color, bright whites, deep blacks, and lively pinks and greens are accomplished using natural vegetal dies, which pop with fantastic vibrancy. The rug originates from the turn of the 19th century, and shows good condition, with a tight weave, and nice color. The rug measures 47" x 26".
