Navajo Ganado Rug featuring bold, central serrated diamonds (terraced diamonds) that are typical of traditional patterns, sometimes symbolizing mountains or the four sacred mountains of the Navajo people. Flanking the central motifs are small, white-outlined cross symbols, which are a traditional motif representing Spider Woman (Na'ashjÈ'ÌÌ Asdz··n), a significant deity in Navajo mythology who taught the people the art of weaving. The colors include a rich, dominant red, natural grey/brown, black, and natural white/cream banding. The tight weave and sturdy construction make this a durable textile suitable for floor use or as a wall hanging.
