Before the trains started coming to this part of the world and businesses like the Fred Harvey Company started selling Navajo jewelry to the masses, most people back east didn't know anything of the Navajo. Traders like JB Moore would be one of the first to introduce the art of the Navajo to collectors back east, rugs not silver. He put together a catalog of different weavings that would be sold in large quantities. More Traders would begin to introduce Navajo weavings and even influence certain styles.Today this tradition is carried on by the Trading Posts. We have a large collection of weavings from classic Ganado Reds to Germantown Revivals. Also, old antiques that have the character that goes with age to the new contemporary weavings. Enjoy looking through our online collection, and remember if you don't see what you are looking for we have many more in the Post.

Navajo weaver Elsie Begay is from an area rich in weaving tradition. She is known for her Teec Nos Pos style rugs and has taught her young daughters the traditional art. You will be blown away by the the intricate design that captures so many Four Corner elements. The rug is classic Teec Nos Pos with the heavy border and Oriental feel. Elsie weaves this rug with a tightness that will last for generations of getting used daily. If this one is a little big we have a few other shorter runners here at the Trading Post, just ask us for some pictures.
