Coban daily huipil. This post-2000 daily huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in three loose white cotton
base panels that have gauze sections. These panels have white on white bird motifs . The head and arm openings
are surrounded by rows of hand embroidered flowers created using a wrapped needle technique. Because of their
lightness, Coban huipils are now worn widely by Maya women. This example was acquired from Estefana Culajah at
the La Fuente textile market in Antigua. W89 x L52 cm. (15-36) $ 95. OBO
