About the Item

Antique Navajo American Flat Weave Rug medallion, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional example of early 20th-century Native American weaving represents the pinnacle of the Navajo textile tradition. Its strong, graphic composition immediately identifies it as a highly collectible piece among antique rugs. The design centers on a powerful, elongated medallion composed of nested zig-zags and diamond shapes, characteristic of the “Two Grey Hills” or transitional period patterns. The precise serrated edges and the vertical symmetry create a dynamic visual rhythm, placing this piece firmly within the tradition of geometric rugs. The palette is masterfully restrained, utilizing natural, undyed wool tones alongside striking accents of cochineal red. The dominant field color is a mottled heather, providing a sophisticated texture that complements other gray color rugs while allowing the sharp red and black motifs to truly resonate. Woven in a narrow runner or scatter format, this piece is ideally suited for hallways, entryways, or as a powerful wall hanging, making it a perfect example of small scatter size rugs. The flat weave structure ensures durability and a low profile, preserving the integrity of this stunning, century-old textile.
