Nahuala huipil. W95 x L144 cm opened. This fine circa-1980 huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two well balanced white cotton base panels. These
panels are joined by a hand embroidered decorative seam. These panels are densely decorated with supplementary brocade in cotton and rayon in the "petate"
style. The brocade features the plumed serpent motif and other bird and geometric patterns. The brocade was intentionally done in a non-color fast thread
so as to bleed onto the white base. The tradional T-shaped head hole and the arm holes are trimmed in hand embroidered red rayon. It is in very good
condition. It was acquired from Ema and Carmen Tepeu of San Pedro Sacatepequez (G). (10-52) $ 110.
