    Description

    EXCEPTIONAL NAVAJO TEEC NOS POS EYEDAZZLER RUG, MID 20TH C, EXCELLENT CONDITION!
    Beautiful Mid-century Navajo TEEC NOS POS Rug made with handspun and possibly commercial (Germantown) yarns. Teec Nos Pos area weavings are some of the finest rugs known the world over.  This one even has a prominent Spirit Line in one corner!  A Navajo masterpiece.
    Measures approximately 52” x 78”.  Expertly woven.  This one is especially remarkable as it is in pristine shape.  Fresh to the marketplace. It had an original price of 00.00 on it decades ago.
    This has two companion pieces in “The Rugs of Teec Nos Pos, Jewels of the Navajo Loom” - one from Red Mesa without the elaborate border and another from Teec Nos Pos with a border (see last pic of the Red Mesa example).
    Everything guaranteed as stated. Shipping includes full insurance. Please check out my many other quality auctions. Thank you!

    an effort to assist Buyers with understanding the way I describe the condition of Navajo weavings that I’m selling on ebay, I spoke with Navajo textile author and expert Tyrone Campbell about his ‘Classification Categories for Condition’ that he first published in his NEWSLETTER in 1981.
    After discussing with him that we may have to tweak it a bit because its been 40 years since it was originally comprised and has gotten nearly impossible to find weavings in excellent, let alone mint condition these days, I concluded, what the hell, why mess with a good thing.  It’s a standard worth sticking to!  So here it is as originally written (and with permission to reprint from Tyrone, July 2020).
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    “CLASSIFICATION
    CATEGORIES
    FOR DETERMINING PHYSICAL CONDITION
    FRAGMENT:           Any portion of an entire weaving.
    DETERIORATED:  Heavily damaged, warps exposed, selvage missing, large holes, serious fading or running, corners or areas missing.
    AVERAGE:               Shows floor wear or small holes, some selvage damage, very minor bleeding, etc.
    GOOD:                      Above average classification may still show use, but not broken warps.  In some cases a very small hole or two or a minor selvage break or two is acceptable.
    EXCELLENT:           No holes, no bleeding or fading, no exposed warps or serious selvage damage.
    MINT:                        This classification means that the textile is in pristine condition.
    NOTE:  In the case of rare weavings we will up-grade the condition classification from Average to Good or from Good to Excellent, but in no case to Mint or from Deteriorated to Average condition.”
    From THE TYRONE D. CAMPBELL NEWSLETTER, Published at Albuquerque, N.M., 1981.
