Description

Mid-20th Century Navajo Yei Weaving

This mid-20th-century Navajo Yei weaving features two stylized Yei figures, rendered in traditional vibrant colors and intricate patterns. The Yei, or Holy People, are spiritual beings from Navajo mythology, often depicted in ceremonial sandpaintings and weavings. This handwoven piece showcases a combination of grey, black, and brown tones with highlights of red, blue, and white, intricately crafted to represent the Yei figures in a symmetrical and harmonious design. The weaving is mounted (stapled) to a wooden frame, ready for display.

Medium: Handwoven wool
Frame: Mounted to wooden frame

Condition: The weaving is in good condition with some moth damage and a 1" x 1" hole. While it is not pristine, it displays well and would be well suited for rustic or cabin decor.
