One of a Kind.

The Mexican Chimayo-style rug traces its roots to a rich weaving tradition that blends Spanish colonial techniques with Indigenous design sensibilities. Originating in the early 20th century in the Southwest, particularly around Chimayo, New Mexico, artisans developed a distinctive style characterized by bold geometric patterns, vibrant natural dyes, and tightly woven wool. These rugs often feature symmetrical motifs and central medallions, reflecting both aesthetic balance and cultural symbolism. Over time, Chimayo-style weaving gained recognition for its craftsmanship and regional identity, becoming a celebrated form of textile art. Today, these rugs continue to honor heritage through handwoven detail, color harmony, and enduring design.
