The original piece that inspired this CoasterRug was
made in Mexico in the late 1880s and is a very unusual example of a Saltillo-style
serape. Other than the fact that it is longer than it is wide – a
traditional serape quality – the overall design is quite a departure from
the bright colors, central diamond motifs, and border stripes one associates
with Saltillos. The weaver of this textile created something quite original
by using natural wools, indigo dye and a checkerboard pattern. The result is
as equally bold and optically dynamic as a traditional Saltillo-style serape
but overall distinctively different and fresh. FA.1970.37.14 Serape, Mexico,
19th century. Copyright International Folk Art Foundation, Museum of
International Folk Art, Santa Fe. Licensed through the Tibetan Rug Company.
