Navajo Rug 29 1/2" x 42"

Evelyn Poyer wove this very attractive Navajo rug. This regional style owes much to the influence of Persian rug designs and the input of early Crystal, New Mexico trader John B. Moore.  This Teec Nos Pos rug is tightly woven from plied yarns in colors that range from bright jewel tones to earth tones and even pastels. It has a distinctive broad border with an "X" shape and an elaborate center with smaller complementary design elements.
