{"product_id":"begay32554806","title":"Theresa Begay, Rug, Chief, Navajo, 39 1\/2\" x 57 1\/2\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eTraders like JB Moore would be the first to introduce Navajo art to collectors back east, but it was rugs (not silver) that first captured the imaginations of collectors and decorators. Following Moore's lead, other traders began marketing Navajo weaving and even influenced many of the well-known styles. Today styles are not defined by regions but perfected by dedicated weavers from all parts of the Navajo Nation. We have put together a large collection of rugs on our online Trading Post and hope you take time to look through them all. Hopefully, you will find the perfect rug. The Navajo had a trade system set up with surrounding and distant communities, which included tribes from the Plains. Most scholars feel this is where they were introduced to the Chief Blanket, since the Navajo do not have Chiefs. The blanket is identified by phases and the contemporary weavings borrow from all of those, plus the addition of freelance designs. We have a large collection of Chief Blankets on the online Trading Post so make sure you check them all out.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Perry Null Trading Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42369785725013,"sku":"begay-32554806","price":2200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0246\/9088\/4693\/files\/IMG_3281.jpg?v=1775490622","url":"https:\/\/turquoisetraders.com\/products\/begay32554806","provider":"Perry Null Trading Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
