Navajo Weaving. 7'10" x 5'. A vivid and finely executed Germantown blanket, woven by a master from all four-ply Germantown wool yarns on a red Germantown wool warp. The design is a finely outlined, serrated X motif with a small, stylized whirling log central motif. Floating serrated diamonds with whirling logs and Spider Woman crosses fill in some of the expansive red ground. And inset black ribbon border with small white crosses frames the field nicely. Circa 1890s.
