Antique Navajo Small Scatter Size Wool Ivory Beige Cream White Rug, Circa Date: 1940s. This exceptional weaving represents the enduring graphic power of Southwestern antique rugs. Woven entirely from high-quality wool, this piece showcases the bold, geometric aesthetic that defined the mid-20th century revival of Navajo textile arts. The palette is restrained yet impactful, utilizing natural wool tones to create maximum contrast. The central field is dominated by soft beige and taupe, framed by a striking border of black and cream.

A powerful central medallion, featuring a cross-in-square motif, anchors the composition. This element is surrounded by repeating Z-forms and stepped diagonals, creating a dynamic visual rhythm.
