| Description |
Navajo Germantown Eye Dazzler Rug: Rectangular woven rug; red, grey, and black integrated diamond design on a natural colored field with black border; small black knotted tassel on each corner. Colorful wool yarn was manufactured at the Germantown, Philadelphia textile mills. It was very tightly spun three ply (very rare 1865-1875) or four ply (1875-1895) yarn, available in a variety of bright colors produced from commercial aniline dyes. Germantown yarn was imported by the Santa Fe Railroad during a brief period at the end of the 19th century and sold to Navajo traders. |
