The
Heritage Collection
Pendleton history, made new
again. From our archives we have
chosen to re-introduce these
enduring designs, sure to be
just as cherished today as when
we first created them. Dating
back as far as 1896, each
blanket in the Heritage
Collection illustrates the
geometric motifs and weaving
expertise that quickly became a
Pendleton hallmark. All are 64"
x 80" and unnapped. |

Iroquois Turtle
Blanket
We have brought back an early 1900s Pendleton
design. Legend says that long ago when the earth
was covered with water, the birds saw Skywoman
fall from the sky. They placed her on the turtle's
back. There she planted a garden and as it grew,
Turtle grew in size, finally becoming North
America.

Aspen
With colors inspired by the
white and gray bark of the
Aspen trees against the blue
sky, the original blanket
dates from the 1920s.
Discovered in a private
collection this is a
stunning example of an
Overall pattern.

Geronimo
Geronimo was a legendary Apache medicine man, seer
and spiritual leader. This blanket is inspired by
an original Pendleton robe he wore in a
photography from the early 1900s. As with all
Pendleton blankets through 1909, it has rounded
corners and an unnapped finish.

Banded Stripe
Inspired by Navajo tradition, Pendleton first produced
the Banded Stripe near the end of the 19th century (it
was made with rounded corners only from 1896 to 1909).
An unnapped finish highlights the pattern's sharp
lines and bright colors.

Tepee
A tribute to the tepee, the strong yet lightweight,
easily transportable shelter of nomadic Native
American tribes. They served as gathering places for
important ceremonies and rituals.

Diamond Dance
Diamond Dance is a revival of a pattern from the
Pendleton Cayuse collection of the 1920s. Original
Cayuse blankets are coveted by collectors, and we are
pleased to weave a modern interpretation of this
exciting pattern. The dizzying
three-dimensional-diamond effect makes it one of the
most dynamic designs in our nearly century of
blanket-weaving.
