A1179 - Yei Rug

View Details
This is a handmade Native American rug and is a one of a kind item. A 'Yei' rug shows the deities themselves, facing outward. A 'Yei Be Chai' depicts masked dancers in impersonation of these deities. Tradition holds that it is tabu to weave the eyes of the Yeis into the rug, so many Yei and Yei Be Chai rugs will have the eyes sewn in after the rug is woven. This rug is made with both naturally dyed wool and some aniline dyed wool. This rug measures 46 x 35.
