<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Taupou, post: 8332118, member: 45&quot;]Here&#039;s another clue, in case the fringe is not shown in photos.&nbsp; A genuine Navajo rug will be made with the same warp, across the rug.&nbsp; It will not have a &quot;bundle&quot; of threads for the outside warps, which is clearly shown in the first photo.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is an excellent web site that explains how to tell, and includes drawings showing how Navajo rugs are constructed:&nbsp; <a href="https://www.navajorugrepair.com/fake.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.navajorugrepair.com/fake.htm" rel="nofollow">https://www.navajorugrepair.com/fake.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;Side cords,&quot; despite some claims online, are not </p><p>necessarily a sign of being authentic.&nbsp; Mexican copies often add them on after a rug is taken from the loom, to make it look like it is Navajo-made.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
