Each one of these rugs have been handmade and weaved with articulation in mind. The designs are from Central Diamond and Four Sacred Mountain introduced from traders at the turn of the century. Burntwater rugs are known for their pastel colors and native vegetal dyes. Our Burntwater Navajo Rugs were developed by Bruce Burhnam and Don Jacobs. The Navajo, among all the weavers of Native American blankets, have throughout history been considered the masters in weaving. It is difficult to speak of the Native American rugs of today without addressing antique Navajo blankets and Navajo history. The intricate designs and natural colors seen in a Navajo Southwestern area rug is a culmination of influences from the early Indian trading posts, early Mexican colonists, and aspects of white American design culture, but all these the Navajo have incorporated and made their own. Patterns in the Southwestern rugs seen today are historically based in the antique Navajo rugs of the past. These rugs are unsurpassed in their beauty and technical skill. The Navajo have traditionally woven the finest Navajo blankets and rugs and one doesn’t think of the Native American Indian art of Arizona without the image of the Navajo woven Southwestern rug coming to the fore. Native American blankets, and later Native American authentic Navajo rugs have always been a part of the culture. Navajo rugs have held a special place and prominence at the Cameron Trading Post since it was established in 1916.
