This post-1980 corte was hand woven on a foot treadle loom in two matching weft striped cotton panels attached by “randas”, hand embroidered decorative seams. The exclusive use of silk in the “randas”, indicates that it was used ceremonially. It features complex ikat dye patterns and employs indigo dye. Ikat is a dyeing technique used to pattern textiles that employs a resist dying process similar to tie-dye. This fine example is in excellent condition. It was acquired from Juanita Conos of Chichicastenango at the La Fuente textile market in Antigua Guatemala. The top photograph shows only half of the material. Typically, we sell cortes for yardage. W78 x L270 cm. (12-323) $180.
