About this lot

Dimensions: Approx. 59×29″

Condition: Leather is Brittle with Breakage and a  3 1/2×2″ Piece of Leather Missing

Additional Information: Woven like a battle hymn in wool and fire, the Navajo saddle blanket in red, black, tan, and white doesn’t ask for attention—it commands it. Every thread carries the memory of desert winds and mountain grit, where red burns like dawn over sandstone, black holds the silence of night, tan grounds it in earth, and white cuts through like bone-light truth. Draped over a saddle, it’s not decoration—it’s declaration: strength forged in tradition, riding forward with nothing to prove and everything to honor.
