Collaborative design project between Shiprock Santa Fe owner Jed Foutz and visvim designer Hiroki Nakamura, this handwoven manta is the result of a true cross-cultural collaboration. Woven from natural Japanese handspun wool, dyed using volcanic mud. This is a traditional technique used on kimono. The wool was shipped from Japan and delivered to the Ramah Navajo Weavers guild, who wove it into this subtly beautiful one-of-a-kind textile. Dimensions: 36\" x 60.25\".
