20% Off/FREE SHIPPING! Vintage Two Grey Hills Navajo Rug, Bold Graphics

Sweetpea Cottage is offering this fine old Two Grey Hills regional Navajo rug. Dated from the early 1900's, the design is bold, simple, and an attention grabber, suggesting images of the Arts and Crafts Movement and the Stickley-era. There are lots of lazy lines woven into the rug. The unsymmetrical design and unusual icons leave you wondering what the weaver's intent was. It is made from natural wools in shades of cream, gray, brown, and black with no dyes used. Marvelous to the touch, it is soft and supple, radiating quiet charm. It is a substantially large rug with the dimensions being approximately 40 inches by 59 inches. The photos show the subtle change in dimensions as the sides bow in and out slightly.

The rug displays well whether hung on a wall or placed on a floor. It is definitely a used rug and displays the many trials and tribulations of age. There is some unraveling along the edges and there are areas of minor wear on the corners. Some weaving repairs have been attempted and some more are needed. There are small spots at a variety of locations. We do not know what they are and have never tried to remove them. In our opinion there is an A side and a B side, one being cleaner than the other. The photos show the flaws in this rug. If we were to keep it then we would invest some money in cleaning it, having the edge restored, and other small repairs made. The would convert the rug into a real stunner. We have decided to price it well below market value and let the next owner decide whether to leave it as is or upgrade it with repairs. Either way, it is a nice rug with lots of life left in it. Check the photos carefully and you should be able to get a sense of the quality of the rug. It has been loved and used. This is an old rug with lots of great character. It was all hand made many, many years ago on a traditional loom by a true artisan.
