This weaving is the
work of the great Navajo weaver MARIE TISI. It
measures 40X23 inches Marie used her
personal STORM PATTERN on this rug. She used 6
natural colors when weaving this rug. This
weaving is the perfect size for most coffee tables
and would look great hanging on your wall or the
back of your couch.
Marie comes from the
Cedar Ridge area of the Navajo Nation. She is from
the Tisi family well know for their great rugs.
Weavings from the Tisi family are some of the most
sought after weavings in our area. My mother has
bought weavings from the Tisi family for 35 years
and she calls the Tisi's "perfection weavers".
Tisi weavings are always very tightly woven. I can
furnish the warp/weft count for this weaving via
email request. You can be assured this weaving
will increase in value in the years to come. We
are proud to offer this beautiful weaving from
MARIE TISI!
FROM
HEART To HAND -
One of the most compelling aspects to the art of
weaving is not something seen with the naked
eye. Looking carefully at the remarkable design
of a Navajo rug, you may immediately recognize
the maker's gift of craftsmanship. What may not
be evident is that its true allure comes
straight from the heart of the weaver.
Within its precious threads, centuries of
artistic expression are meticulously woven
together with the very spirit of the person who
created it. From heart to hand, stories of
lives, loves and families flow through the loom,
weaving a wealth of personal history into its
fabric and making each piece a delight to the
touch, the eye and even the soul. Legend has it
the ancient art was handed down to the first
Navajo people over 2,500 years ago by Spider
Woman, who inspired them to weave their strong
spiritual connection to nature into their
designs.
Patterns of wind, sky and mountains came to
reflect the haunting beauty of their beloved
land. And through the generations, the art
itself became a "way of being", an important
life ritual, as weavers used their looms in
daily prayer to the cosmos to assure harmony and
balance with the elements.
Today's artists follow the path of the ancients
by weaving their own personality and character
into their designs. Highly original and
innovative, they often add an exciting new twist
to the traditional tapestry techniques to give
their creations a life beyond warmth or
decoration - and make art that is appreciated as
much for its spirit as it is for its beauty.
