Navajo (Dine') Regional eyedazzler rug

This Dine’ (Navajo) eyedazzler rug has an intriguing design. The interior of this textile has a classic eyedazzler design which is surrounded by a meander design and then red and brown borders. The weaver clearly is drawing from her experience of weaving earlier eyedazzler designs of stacked diamonds that have serrated edges and she is accomodating to the evolving use of borders.

53” wide x 78” long, handspun wool

excellent condition with some loose selvege and a small area of missing weft
