Huitan daily huipil.

This post-1980 huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two red cotton base panels with weft stripes in various colors. These panels are joined by very fine hand embroidered decorative seams. The panels are decorated by horizontal bands of supplementary brocade featuring geometric motifs. Traditional textiles in the Huitan style are rare. This is a very fine example. It is in excellent condition. It was acquired from Sra. Rose Hernandez at her “tienda” in the Mercado des Artesanos in Antigua Guatemala. W 85 x L 81 cm. (19-133) $ 120 or best offer.
