Featured in this lot is this Navajo Crystal Eye Dazzler rug circa 1950's. The rug features a wonderfully and professionally crafted wool construction that shows black band ends with a off white field that shows eye dazzler decoration with stepped segments of red, black, and grey coloration. The regional pattern Crystal starts in the mid 1930’s. The pattern is borderless with horizontal bands of geometric designs. The bands are separated by “wavy lines”. This is created by alternating and crossing the color of each weft. The colors are of natural wool with vegetal dyed colors. The contemporary Crystals are drastically different from the old J.B. MOORE crystals, which made the area famous in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. The condition of this Navajo rug shows a preserved nature that shows some wear to the weft of this rug and some minor disturbances to the weave but otherwise shows a preserved condition. The measurements of this rug is 46" x 30". The thread count is 96 threads per square inch.
