CROSS PATTERN

Typical Navajo style
Each cross has a subtle difference in size.

A deep, rich red gradient
This place is worth seeing.

When viewed from a distance, it creates an optical illusion.
Focusing on the unbleached plain part and
Perhaps we should focus on the cross part.
It's interesting because the way the pattern looks changes.

Each handwoven item is unique and no two are exactly alike.
As you can see from the images, the atmosphere is exceptional.

A characteristic of old Navajo rugs is the spinning process.
Multiple lazy lines can also be observed.

Handmade textiles
Using natural plant dyes
This rug is woven by a single craftsman from start to finish.

The vibrant colors and unique characteristics of natural dyes
Careful handcrafted work
As it ages, it becomes an antique
It exudes plenty of charm.

Similar to the one I sold the other day
Frays and edges
It was carefully repaired.
The thread is old and I think it was repaired quite a while ago.

The edges are piped with thick cotton.
I can continue to use it with peace of mind.
That was also part of the appeal of this rug.

If the conditions are good
This is a pattern where the price more than doubles.

I recently found a new cleaning company.
Navajo, a job that most contractors would be reluctant to do.
I tried dry cleaning it before putting it up for sale.

Westin and Reetz-Carlton, etc.
Guest cleaning
I requested the service from a company that handles this type of work.
It turned out quite well.

Some stains may remain.
The dust that had accumulated over the years has been removed.
For those who were stuck on that point...
I believe it's in a condition where it can be used without any problems.
