The "Bessie Barber" design - The Navajo tradition of weaving blankets and rugs has a rich history that extends over three centuries, with artisans consistently evolving their designs. In the 1980s, the Barber and Begay families from Burnham, New Mexico, introduced the Burnham Style, a modern twist on this age-old craft. This style predominantly features natural shades of brown, white, gray, and black sheep's wool, complemented by small bursts of vibrant color. It integrates unique pictorial elements representing Navajo ceremonial figures alongside traditional geometric patterns. Heat-resistant up to 175°C, this rug is durable and versatile. However, to preserve its quality, avoid placing hot objects such as pots or kettles directly on it.
