All hand spun natural wool in dark brown, medium and light brown with carded grays and a white and aniline dyed black. Marie Begay is from the Burnham area of the Navajo Nation. Marie has her own sheep and her family shears the wool that Marie then washes, cards and spins for her weavings.
We have been visiting and shopping at Toh-Atin for over twenty years. Always loved visiting with Jackson and his mother. We would spend hours gathering information on rugs, jewelry, and baskets- what a tremendous inventory. Everyone was so knowledgeable. We have so many memorable pieces. Jackson asked my husband, " How often do you get compliments on your tie?" We bought a very nice bolo! :)
We had just seen and visited with Jackson two weeks earlier and were so saddened and shocked to hear of his passing. What a loss to friends, family, and community. Our deepest condolences to his family and to the staff.
