Featured in this lot is this Navajo Klagetoh Trading Post rug circa 1930's. The rug features a wonderfully and professionally crafted hand spun wool construction with a beautiful central motif and red aniline dyes set to a grey field and black lining accents to the central medallion and the stepped decorations in the shoulders. The rug features a Lazy Lines throughout the rug consistent with showing age and authenticity of the rug. Klagetoh is located just south of Ganado and 10 miles north of Wide Ruins. The English translation is “hidden springs”. The Klagetoh weaving is very similar to the Ganado rugs, but with a predominantly gray background instead of the Ganado’s red. Some experts do not consider Klagetoh a specific regional rug but a sub-type of Ganado. The rug shows accent lines that are impossible to recreate showing this rug to be an original weaving with no apparent repairs to the rug. The condition of this rug is this good with some wear to the coloration of the rug but otherwise shows good overall condition. The measurements of this rug are 71" x 44". The thread count is 254 threads per square inch.
