Millicent Rogers (1902-1953) was a woman of wealth and style who had the foresight to collect and preserve Southwestern blankets and rugs. This Chief Blanket was acquired in 1947 and is the signature weaving of her outstanding collection. Woven around 1890, it represents a transition between blankets designed for Indian use only and those woven for trade.
