San Juan Comalapa daily huipil.
This post-1980 huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two brown cotton blend base panels. The surface
decoration is supplementary weft brocade. It features the most classic Comalapa style. The red stripes across the shoulders are the most
standard traditional feature of Comalapa huipils. This example is very well balanced. It is in excellent condition. It was acquired from
Elena Escalón, daughter of Juana, at the La Fuente market in Antigua. W 78 x L 130 cm opened. (14-154) $ 100. OBO
