From the Arctic expanses of the great white north to the southern tip of Tierra del Fuego, weaving traditions are a shared form of expression for native cultures throughout the Western hemisphere. Common among these inspirational expressions is a reverence for and celebration of the natural and spiritual worlds. The New West Collection spans the iconography of Native peoples throughout the Americas, in a modern rendering of designs that have become associated with the West. Taking inspiration from Northwest coast Indian baskets, Navajo textiles, Mexican serapes and Peruvian weavings from the collections of the Museum of New Mexico, Shaw has reinterpreted ancient design motifs to create a collection as dynamic and diverse as the region. Rugs in the New West series are machine woven of lustrous olefin yarn which enhances the dimensional qualities of the designs. The buttery-soft feel and dense construction features a sculpted appearance that is both visually and tactility appealing. New West features a drop stitch manufacturing technique that gives the product a hand carved look and feel. This technique does not adversely affect the rugs performance, but further enhances the design. Made in the USA
