Featured in this lot is this Navajo Two Grey Hills wool rug, circa 1920's. The Two Grey Hills style was started in 1914 by George Bloomfield and Ed Davis at the Toadlena and Two Grey Hills Trading Post. These Navajo rugs are characterized by natural browns, tan, gray, ivory, white, and black. It is not unusual for the blacks to be oven-dyed. Very rarely, small amounts of red, orange or blue are used. The patterns usually have a central diamond motif and intricate patterns. The Two Grey Hills weavings are noted for their high quality. The trading post is located in northwest New Mexico, south of Shiprock and northeast of the Crystal area. This rug is no exception to the style, showing three diamonds in the center with a stepped decoration along the outsides of the center piece. The condition of this rug is good; there are three corners missing tassels and wear and fading consistent with the age of the rug. The measurements of this rug are 57 1/2" x 37 1/2".
