R397 Banded Mohair
Banded Mohair rug by Navajo weaver Stella Manygoats. The 41” x 69” rug has long mohair wool on the reverse side.
Tufted rugs have been made for many years. In many cases, they are plain striped rugs, but with locks of mohair woven into the front side of the rug, to almost mimic a sheep’s pelt. Each lock remains separate, and drapes down the front of the rug, but is locked into the rug on the reverse side, which looks like an ordinary, striped rug. Although they are still made, they are a rarer type of Navajo rug.
Historically, these textiles were used as for seating, bedding and believe you me, they are warm and cozy when it’s cold outside.
