1890s Navajo Germantown Jacket
Tribe: Non-Native Southwestern Artist
Item #MS01278
Brand New Dark Blue Denim Levi's Jacket with panels of an Antique Navajo Germantown Weaving, circa 1890s, on the Front and Back. Each panel is hand sewn onto a backing and then hand sewn onto the jacket.
These panels are cut from damaged antique Navajo weavings, preserving the best-surviving sections of each weaving and giving these historic textiles new life as wearable art. Each jacket is one of a kind.
Germantown weavings take their name from the commercially spun, brightly dyed wool yarn from Germantown, Pennsylvania, which Navajo weavers used in the late 1800s.
