#2954 18"x36" Navajo horse blanked, hand woven wool, SW United States, ca.1940, this one will dazzle your eyes, crimson red, rich russet brown, and cream, with a small amount of gray, has a spirit line woven into it,  near mint condition $225.00

The weaver has woven a spirit trail into the side of the rug. If any spirits were inadvertently

woven into the fabric, "the fabric of life", then the weaver leaves a spirit line for the energy

to have a path out. Many weaving cultures have similar superstitions, and actually, the tassels

themselves that appear in most Navajo weavings, can be viewed as sprit trails. You can see

the spirit line in the photo below. The contrasting ivory line within the brown..

The trail begins within the body of the rug, and leads out to the edge.
