Pictorial, with corn and five YEI figures. With Navajo Rug Weavers tag. Tag #398 by Sadie Jim.Yei pattern rugs feature images of the Holy People drawn from ceremonial sand paintings but do not recreate an entire painting. Typically, the Yei's are highly stylized figures with elongated bodies, short straight legs, and heads facing the viewer. Two distinct styles emerged in the 1920s. Those made in the area of Shiprock, New Mexico tend to have light colored backgrounds with no border, and often use brightly colored commercial yarns. Yei's made in the central part of the reservation, in northeastern Arizona, tend to have dark backgrounds with simple borders. They are more likely to incorporate natural wool colors and more subdued chemical shades. Yei's continue to be very popular with collectors and are now being made in nearly all parts of the reservation.RETURN POLICY WITHIN 3 DAYS OF RECEIPT, BUYER PAYS FOR SHIPPING.FREE SHIPPING!!!
