Eugenia Stanley, Navajo artist’s beautiful storm pattern in fabulous colors. American Dakota Rugs are made in the USA on American machines. American Dakota uses dyes to achieve their vibrant colors. Many of their colors are inspired by the plant and mineral dyes found in the Southwest. Their yarns are made from premium nylon, the same yard systems found in airport carpet. The rugs surpass a commercial-grade rating, meaning they can withstand generations of wear.
