A1299 - Yei Rug
View Details
This is a handmade Native American rug and is a one of a kind item. Yei and Yei be Chai rugs depict Navajo Yei dieties. A "Yei" rug shows the dieties themselves, facing outward. A "Yei Be Chai" depicts masked dancers in impersonation of these dieties. 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 Navajo rug is made with handcarded and handwashed natural and aniline dyed wool. This rug measures 69 x 40.
