These rugs have an extensive history that has grown over time and can truly be appreciated as great works of art.
Some of the most popular southwestern and western rugs are handmade area rugs, spirit rugs, Mexican Guadalupe rugs, Oaxaca Mexico rugs including Zapotec Indian rugs, Mohair and Navajo rugs. Each of these different rugs mixes a variety of colors and characters, symbolizing spirituality or depictions of historical events. An excellent example of this is brought to life in the Southwestern Spirit rug which contains a variation of colors and designs. The spiritual characters weaved into these rugs are created in a variety of patterns and forms that express the spirituality of the people.
Not only are southwestern rugs known for their incredible beauty, but the skill and hard work involved in making Native rugs and runners is also greatly appreciated. The makers of Hand Woven wool rugs must be very skilled and begin the rug making process by kneeling in front of a vertical wooden-framed loom. The designs are then put into place by using a shuttle to weave a variety of colored yarn together, making large-scale geometric characters and designs. In the beginning, Navajo rugs as well as those of some other Southwest Indian tribes were weaved of hand-spun cotton thread. However, once the wool of domestic sheep was introduced to the region by the Spanish settlers, the people primarily used wool to make their colorful rugs and other traditional weaving.
Today, many of the modern southwestern rugs are made in areas where Spanish and Native American histories have melded together to create unique designs. Southwest rugs, with their natural earth tone colors and one-of-a-kind southwestern designs make them the standard for rustic home decorating. If you are looking for a great southwest rug, you will likely purchase from American companies or directly from Native American weavers. Buying rugs from Navajo or other American Indian tribes not only gives you the satisfaction of owning a southwestern rug that is made by Native Americans but also helps to support the Native American heritage of rug making, and the people who themselves sell their rugs, blankets, and Native American art.
The rug you purchase will certainly depend on what your tastes are and what kind of decorating you have in mind. You will find that southwest rugs are an excellent southwestern accent when combined with rustic or western home decor. Whether you are changing your home decor or decorating an entire house using a southwestern theme, you will come across many designs and colors available to choose from. Among these options you will find everything from Zapotec rugs with no two alike, to southwest table runners and western tapestries. Home decorators love hand woven rugs because of the rich colors and textures. Whatever your decorating style and whatever your home decor needs, you will no doubt enjoy the warmth and color brought to life in your home by decorating with southwestern rugs.
