Coban daily huipil. This classic post-1980 huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in three black cotton base
panels. These panels are densely covered with rows of supplementary brocade in several different colors. Typical
Coban motifs include deer, universal diamonds, and people. Coban huipils are popular with women throughout the
Maya area. This fine example is in excellent condition. It was acquired from Petronila Mendez Bocó at the
Mercado des Artesanos in Antigua. W92 x L 46 cm. (15-40) $ 120. OBO
