"They just don't' make
'em like they used to." Frequently that is true.
Welcome to our catalogue of
hand-woven Toadlena/Two Grey Hills textiles from Toadlena for evidence to the
contrary.
We purchase the work of many
wonderful weavers who live near the Toadlena Trading Post and then
sell these exquisite textiles directly to you. When you purchase a
rug or tapestry from us, you are directly supporting a weaver in her
craft. You are also helping to ensure the future of Navajo weaving.
Toadlena Trading Post is
currently supporting 175 weavers.
Our catalogue features
exquisite work. It changes as new pieces are acquired and others are
sold. The weaver, her sense of her own value and what the market
will bear determine the prices. Other factors are textile size,
fineness of weave, quality and preparation of materials and overall
impact and uniqueness of design.
We invite you to surround
yourself with a Toadlena/Two Grey Hills rug or tapestry and
"walk in beauty." The Navajo simply say, "Hohzo."
Welcome to their world.
For a specific size, color
or price range, please call us directly at 1-888-420-0005, and we'll
be happy to locate it for you.
If the Two
Grey Hills is, square foot for square foot, the finest rug coming
off the Navajo looms today, then it follows that it is also the most
expensive."
