Traders like JB Moore would be the first to introduce the art of the Navajo to collectors back east, but it was rugs (not silver) that first captured the imaginations collectors and decorators. Following Moore's suit, other traders would begin to market Navajo weaving, even influencing many of the well-known styles. Today styles are not defined by regions, but perfected by dedicated weavers from all parts of the Navajo Nations. We have put together a large collection of rugs on our online Trading Post and hope you take time to look through them all. Hopefully, you will find the perfect rug.

Navajo weaver Melvin Francis continues the style she was taught by her mother Erma. She weaves in the Wide Ruins style using soft colors and the banded design. We have several of her weavings, all similar but done in different sizes. You will find this color pattern blends nicely with many different colors, perfect for your home or office.
