Ganado Promontory Wool Rug by Luis Hernandez
This is an excellent handwoven, flat weave rug by master weaver Luis Hernandez. The rug was made using 100% soft, fine, handspun yarns in a beautiful Promontory pattern. The rug was handwoven with a tight weave using 100% handspun wool yarns that offer natural variegation and durability with color fast aniline dyes. The tight, handwoven weave displays the bright, rich tones in the fine Promontory pattern in the time-honored Zapotec, multi-generational craft by a master weaver, Luis Hernandez. The rug shows a phenomenal Navajo-like, Ganado pattern of the historic Lorenzo Hubbell Trading Post days of the 1800’s, along with a modern, contemporary detail that shows a cream, heathered background, a large diamond pattern at the center in bold lines of red, black and cream/white, and four four-point cross symbols (one in each corner) of the rug. The rug is finished by the bands of color on each end. The rug measures 2’ 6” by 5’ (2 foot 6 inches by 5 foot). This is a brand-new rug.
