Yei Navajo rugs - Shiprock Navajo rug
Navajo
rugs, blankets and weavings
Shiprock Yei and Yeibichai Navajo rugs achieved regional
style status during the 1940's. The Shiprock Yei Navajo rug customarily has
a white or light
colored
background,
and incorporates bright, bold hues; a dozen or more colors may be used. Yei
are deity and the figures are tall and slender and bearing ceremonial embellishments.
Their postures are upright, faces are outward, and expressions are stiff. More
elaborate Yei Navajo rugs have a three-sided border, created by the elongated
body of a rainbow goddess, extending down each side and across the bottom.
Additional
designs in the Yei Navajo rug may include intervening cornstalks or arrows.
