STARTS AT JUST $9.99 and LISTED WITH NO RESERVE PRICE! ESTATE ANTIQUE NAVAJO SHOULDER or CHILD's BLANKET. Circa 1890's - 1915, and coming in quite good overall condition for the collector. The exact size is: 35" x 59", or 2'-11" x 4'-11", or 89 x 150 cm. Coming fresh out of estate storage, this antique Navajo blanket type weaving was created with shades of natural ivory and brown wool and an analine dyed red wool that is stable and has NOT bled or transferred. No fading of color. No "A" or "B" side. Both sides exhibit the same colour palette. The field design shows three serratted diamond-shaped elements with half diamonds on the sides and a simple red stipe on each end. The side cords and the top and bottom ending cords are mostly all original and complete with some areas frayed. The four corner tassels are missing. There is one worn area in the central field (see close up photo 10) and I see a couple of small punctures. A competant repair person could easily fix up these blemishes. This antique Navajo textile artifact is very soft and supple in the hand and it comes in a rather remarkable state of preservation for its age. It is estate fresh and it comes just a bit dusty from long time storage. Although coming from a smoke-free and pet-free home, a professional cleaning will improve its overall look and handle.
