Secrets Of Purchasing Navajo Rugs For Your Flooring Needs

Secrets Of Purchasing Navajo Rugs For Your Flooring Needs

There is a great demand for well made handcrafted rugs all over the world by homeowners who want to make their floors uniquely adorned. This is why smart travelers who know what they want when it comes to flooring materials go to great trouble finding great deals on rugs at pueblos, auctions, flea markets and museum shops in places such as Arizona, Mexico and the likes.

When touring Sedona, Phoenix, Albuquerque, Santa Fe and such other places, people over and over again fall in love with the fine-looking American Indian handicrafts, handcrafted rugs included. These rugs are some of the best flooring items you can ever find anywhere around the globe. And while any person touring these areas can find a tourist oriented store that deal in authentic American Indian artifacts but that go for big bucks, a budget constricted homeowner should explore the lesser known shops that sell the same items inexpensively. Here is one of such items that you can find and purchase in the said inexpensive artifacts shops.

Hand-crafted Navajo rugs.

For a majority of authentic handcrafted item buffs, weavings by some artists from one of the largest Indian tribes in the U.S. are the one of a kind handmade rug collectibles lovingly done for adorning any sorts of a dwelling. As it is, don’t be surprised when other collectibles such as hundred year old chief’s blanket and the likes routinely go for thousands of dollars at a single sale at major international auctions or even in some tourist-oriented shops around the American continent.

The best handmade modern day Navajo rugs are similarly not cheap. Even those sized for placing at door steps (placemats) can cost a hundred dollars and up depending on the opted for seller or reseller. Nevertheless, if you are one those bargain-savvy purchasers, then you can find a genuine rug at approximately twenty to forty percent less than the customary retail price by opting for items sold by the middlemen. However, you need to tread very carefully when it comes to these traders as some of them are not all that trustworthy. On the other hand, life is all about taking carefully considered risks here and there.

Where can you find a genuine Navajo flooring rug cheaply?

As it is, on a single Friday evening a month, all round the year, the Navajo-operated Crownpoint Rug Weavers Association auctions a plethora of differently sized, styled and made rugs handmade by talented American Indian weavers. This one of its kind auction has attracted all sorts of rug dealers, ranging from individual homeowners to resellers from all over the globe and a horde of interested tourists for the past forty years.

All in all, if you want to get the best out of the auction, you should make a point of arriving at Crown point at around 3pm so that you may enough time to inspect the thousands of rugs to be auctioned later on that evening. This way, you will certainly get what you have always wished for in authentic Navajo rugs for adorning your floor giving it one of a kind appearance that is both appealing to the eye and comfortable when stepped on!
