    This caught my eye and I immediately thought Navajo. To me, it has all the right indications.

    The wool weaving is one piece, continuing from one side to the other.

    It definitely seems hand-made. In fact, there's still a straight pin holding the black cloth inside to the wool.

    Each side measures approximately 12" x 12".


    Thank you in advance!
