Almolonga daily huipil. W87 x L176 cm opened. This circa 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 geometric designs. The panels are joined by a hand embroidered decorative seam. This huipil is in very good condition. It was acquired from Bonifacia Mendex Boco of Santa Maria de Jesus. (8-32) $110. Sold.
