Vintage Indigenous Americans, Pink Runner, Vegetable Dyed Wool, Hand Flat-Weave

Description

HIGHLY UNUSUAL, Antique-Vintage, Vegetable Dyed Wool, Flat Weave, Hand Woven, Zapotec, Pink Rug Runner. 66"l x 13"w.  14oz.
I am not a "Indigenous Peoples of the Americas" art expert.  That being said, this piece appears to my "untrained eye" to be a VERY old, loom hand-woven, vegetable-dyed, wool runner rug, apparently of Zapotec origin (based on general size, runner-shape, and the end twisted-knotted tassels).  However, it is unusual: not only it's apparent age and primary pink color, but also in that it's stripped pattern is running VERTICALLY along the length of the runner, rather than the typical horizontal stripes running across the runner, which makes this a very unusual pattern  / weave.  Additionally, the irregular "jagged" black and white "eye-dazzler" type pattern, running in three thin stripes lengthwise, is a highly unusual (ie "unique", since I have yet to see it in any other Indigenous American Textile) feature, and almost reminiscent of the black and white (regular-patterned) thin horizontal stripes in Zacateca Falsa blankets. This runner was used in it's day, and will show some slight fading of the vegetable dye color in spots, and some fairly minor age stains / spots, but the weave itself is in very good condition if not "primitive hand-woven" done, with an irregular border and distinctive weave pattern).
Note: The buyer is required to pay the flat rate shipping fee regardless of the delivery service used by seller, and regardless of the amount (whether higher or lower than said fee) the seller must pay to said delivery service for the shipping of said purchase to the buyer.
