Circa 1930s Navajo Yei Rug, Large, Natural Dyes, Collectible, 10' 10" x 7' 5"
Description
If you have ever walked into the showroom here at Perry Null's Trading Post you will remember the HUGE rug hanging from our high ceiling. This rug has been featured in several publications, and we have two of those with one being the 1974 Arizona Highways magazine. It is a Yei rug that features both Female and Male figures performing a night ceremony. The rug depicts the last night of the nine day healing ceremony. This rug is from the 1930s - 1940s and represents a museum important Navajo weaving. Not many opportunities present themselves for this type of Navajo antique art.
