TRADITIONAL RUG BY GLORIA BEGAY (NAVAJO)
Gloria Begay was born to the Coyote Pass People and born for the Bitter Water People. She has been active weaving since the 1990's.
We use 'traditional' as a term for older patterns and designating rugs that are not able to be categorized either by geography or adherence to conventional patterns. For example, a Two Grey Hills pattern that is not from the Two Grey Hills area and/or does not follow the traditional coloring conventions may be referred to as a "traditional" rug. As with the evolution of most art forms, weavers are branching out and will often weave a rug that may have elements of more than one pattern or color scheme. When we have a rug that does not fall into one of the conventional styles, we rely on the weaver's preference, so if they give us a pattern name, even if it does not exactly fit that style, we respect their designation. When the weaver does not give us a pattern or style name, we refer to the rug as "traditional."
