Marie Yazzie, Navajo Handwoven Rug, Raised Outline Pattern, 37 1/2" x 62 1/2"
Beyond the similarity in tradition and technique, however, various regions throughout the Reservation have created their own distinctive rug styles. Two Grey Hills rugs are prized for their fine tapestry weaves in natural shades of grey, black, cream and brown. Ganado Red rugs are sought for their boldness of color and geometric design. Lorenzo Hubbell introduced the vibrant red aniline dye at his Ganado Trading Post in the late 1800's. Wide Ruins and Burntwater rugs are outstanding examples of finely spun, vegetal dyed wool in intricate and interlocking patterns. Sage, rabbit brush, wild onion, parsley, wildflowers and numerous root stocks provide the source for the soft rainbow of colors.The Yei and Yei Bi Chei rugs of the Shiprock and Lukachukai areas are colorful weavings representing spiritual deities and the Yei Bi Chei dancers of the winter Nightway Ceremony. Other rug styles include Klagetoh, modern Crystal, saddle blankets, Tree of Life and the Chief rug with its wide bands of red, white and indigo blue. New Lands was an area settled south of Sanders, AZ and produced its own style of rug, the raised outline.

Tree Of Life Navajo Rug by Navajo Weaver Marie Begay. Marie is from the Teec Nos Pos, Arizona area and along with her sisters Lena and Rena is among the notably few weavers that weave this type of rug. The rug is of course wool and is precisely done in a truly traditional way. These rugs are becoming harder to find as very few weavers do this type of rug. I am very proud to offer this weaving. I have known these weavers personally and buy directly from them. It is an honor to be able to share traditional stories with them and conduct business not only as associates but as friends. Please contact me if you have any questions. The rug measures 20" by 26". Thank you for "Shopping Southwest!"
