Almolonga daily huipil. W93 x L196 cm opened. This post-1980 daily huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two well matched red ground cotton panels. “The Almolonga huipil is intricate and solidly brocaded above the waist. The most common design of the 1960s was a vertical zigzag in maroon, purple and orange-gold.” (Altman and West, “Threads of Identity”, p. 121) It is decorated with supplementary brocade in stars and other geometric designs. The collar is machine embroidered, but very well done and trimmed with velvet. This huipil is in excellent condition. It was acquired from Ema and Carmen Tepeu of San Pedro Sacatepéquez (G).
