    So this curious little tapestry appears to have been made by a contemporary weaver, perhaps in Mexico? Black, white, and grey wool, 39" x 24", not including fringe. The colors and style are classic, seems as if the artist meant to combine Navajo and Mexican Saltillo as well as contemporary design elements into this work of art. If anyone has any information on this artist, or the work, please feel free to share. I hope you enjoyed seeing it, and thanks for looking.

      CanyonRoad often helps with this sort of material, maybe if he sees the thread, he can offer an opinion. :)
