A 36 x 42” nearly square wool rug. The tree of life in the central square is adorned by various birds in a colorful array. The square is outlined in a purple “Greek key” design. Surrounding the square are bands in soft colors of gray, natural, tan and a soft teal. The weaver is Ella Tsinnijinnie of Many Farms. This style of weavings is said to have originated around the Cedar Ridge area in the northern part of the Navajo reservation. The “tree” in this design seems to be growing out of a pot, or tall basket. There are small trees to either side of the main one. From the Crownpoint Weavers Auction in Crownpoint, NM, purchased in 2003. Condition is excellent. Fairbanks Collection - HKA#65390
