Navajo Yei Pictorial Rug
This mid-20th century Navajo Yei pictorial rug showcases an exceptionally rare color composition featuring ochre, beige, salmon, grey, yellow, and burgundy wool. Six sacred Yei figures alternate with stylized corn stalks, framed by an intricate sawtooth border on two sides. The striking burgundy edging and unconventional palette distinguish this textile as a remarkable example of Diné weaving artistry. Crafted with a notably tight weave, the rug remains in excellent condition, preserving the vibrancy and craftsmanship of its era.
