San Juan Comalapa daily huipil.
This post-1980 huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two wide and
well-balanced black cotton blend base panels. The surface decoration is supplementary weft brocade in a
contemporary Comalapa design. The panels are joined by an extravagant hand embroidered decorative seam.
The collar is fluted and opened for easier access. This huipil is in excellent condition. This beautiful
example was acquired from
Sra. Estefana Culajah at the La Fuente textile market in Antigua. W 93 x L 66 cm. (16-77) $ 180. OBO
