According to Navajo legend, a deity named Spider Woman taught them weaving. According to history, Pueblo Indians introduced weaving to the Navajo. Today, Navajo weavings are highly sought after by collectors and art enthusiasts for their beauty and cultural significance.
Known for their intricate designs and rich colors, the natural dyes are often derived from plants and minerals found in the surrounding environment. Typically made on a vertical loom, using a technique known as tapestry weaving, the weaver interlaces horizontal and vertical threads to create their design. Ranging from simple, monochromatic patterns to complex, multicolored compositions, these weavings have long been an important part of the Navajo culture, both as a way to preserve their heritage and as a means of artistic expression.
At Sorrel Sky, we offer both current and vintage textiles, with styles that include Teec Nos Pos, Two Grey Hills, Ganado, Germantown, and Crystal. There has never been a better time to add one of these handcrafted, one-of-a-kind Navajo weavings to your world.
