Size: 232 x 143 cm; 10 warps(comma) 30 wefts
Description: The less common Red Mesa regional style descends from Eyedazzlers of the Transitional Period (1863-1890). Eyedazzler designs are known for their unusually bright colors and intricate designs that create an optical effect. Red Mesa rugs use contrasting outlines of design features to create a similar optical effect. The typical motif is a serrated diamond(comma) which is prominently featured in this example created with natural and aniline colored handspun wool.
