The R.C. Gorman Navajo Velvet charcuterie board brings one of the artist’s most recognizable nocturnal images to the table. A seated woman in a flowing crimson dress rests one arm on a raised knee, her head lifted toward a midnight sky scattered with stars, the silver conchos of her belt glinting against the red fabric. The artist’s signature appears in red within the composition.
The pairing of warm crimson and midnight blue gives the design real presence, whether the board is laid with cheeses and charcuterie or hung as Southwest wall art between gatherings. As with the rest of the gallery’s gift merchandise, it reproduces Gorman’s imagery on a functional object rather than serving as an original artwork.
Pair the board with the matching Navajo Velvet tote, tumbler, and lighted acrylic tile for a coordinated gift set, or give it to a host who likes Southwestern art woven into their entertaining.
