Silver Bark

The Silver Bark blanket brings the sky and earth together in a classic Pendleton design from the 1920s. Discovered in a private collection, it features stylized arrow, star, diamond and waterbug motifs. The hues were inspired by the white and grey bark of Aspen trees against a blue sky, and the muted colors give it the much-loved look of a vintage blanket. Silver Bark is a beautiful example of an "Overall" blanket pattern, with design ekements repeating across the entire surface of the fabric. Unnapped. Sueded trim. 82% wool/18% cotton Dry clean. Made in the USA.

Day Of The Dead

Dia de los Muertos…the Day of the Dead comes to life on this colorful blanket. More than 3,000 years ago, indigenous peoples of Mexico celebrated a ritual honoring their dead ancestors. During the age of the Aztecs, skulls were first used to symbolize death and rebirth. In the 15th century, Spanish conquistadores were aghast at a ritual that seemed to mock death. To make the ceremony more Christian, the Spaniards moved the event to All Saints' Day (November 1), which is when it is celebrated today. The central figure of our Day of the Dead blanket represents the colorful wooden skull masks or calacas that celebrants wear as they dance to honor their dead relatives. The wooden skulls, decorated sugar skulls and marigolds are placed at gravesites and altars for the departed. The blanket's bright colors and festive images of flowers and mariachi musicians capture the spirit of the celebration. Napped.

Arrowhead

The intricate, geometric design is created with arrow images, symbols common among Native American tribes. A bundle of five arrows represented the five founding tribes of the Iroquois League. To the Navajo, flint is a sacred stone and arrowheads are said to resemble the tips of lightning bolts thrown by Thunder. Sioux lore tells of Unktomi Tanka (a big spider) who spent his days making flint arrows for the tribe. A ticking sound in the grass indicates that a spider is busy making arrowheads. A Shasta legend relates how the people got arrowheads back in the days when arrowheads were made of pine bark instead of obsidian. Ground Squirrel tricked the arrowheads away from Obsidian Old Man and the sharp new arrows made hunting better. It's no surprise that arrowheads often signified alertness. Arrowheads are often used in designs to signify protection. Unnapped. Sueded trim. 82% wool/18% cotton. Dry clean. Made in the USA.
