Navajo Handwoven Rug – by Martha Smith

Woven by Diné artist Martha Smith near Gallup, New Mexico, this rug features a bold storm pattern rooted in tradition. Earth-tone colors — warm mesa brown, sandstone beige, and soft grays — come together with crisp black and white accents to create a timeless Southwest aesthetic. The central design showcases a row of feather-like motifs, symbolizing balance and connection, bordered by classic stepped corners and geometric edgework. Crafted with 100% wool on a traditional loom, this rug reflects the craftsmanship and cultural depth of the Navajo weaving tradition. Perfect as a wall hanging or floor piece, it brings a grounded, desert-spirit energy to any space.
