Vintage hand-woven rug from the Navajo tribe in the southwestern United States. Believed to be from the 1960s-80s, this piece was woven as a utilitarian textile during that time. The distinctive stepped diamond pattern is reminiscent of the Ganado style, highly regarded among Navajo weavings. The color scheme, based on red, natural, and indigo, possesses a strength that preserves only the prayers and structure of pre-industrial/pre-art craftsmanship. While the color composition is extremely restrained, it is based on earthy colors reminiscent of red clay, with indigo, natural, and pale blue arranged with a sense of tension, resonating strongly with the philosophies of Mingei and primitive art. Despite its small size, the density of the pattern and the quality of the weave are high, making it a complete work that can be used as a floor covering, a wall hanging, or an art piece on furniture. It is a practical object, yet it can be appreciated as a "flat artwork." In recent years, vintage rugs that meet these size, texture, and color specifications are often priced around 100,000 yen or more through specialty stores and galleries. This item is being offered for sale as part of a personal collection clearance, but frankly, it is not an item I am eager to part with. I would like to offer it only to those who appreciate its value. There is a certain amount of wear and tear due to age, but please understand that these are not flaws, but rather traces of the time this rug has experienced. ■ Size (Added) • Size: 44cm × 69cm • Fringe: Approximately 5cm on each side * Please allow for slight individual differences due to the handmade nature of the item.
