Nahuala daily huipil.

This post-1980 daily huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two well-balanced, multi-colored warp striped cotton panels joined by hand embroidered decorative seams. The surface decoration is supplementary brocade featuring “tree of life” motifs. The blue stripes in the base are indigo dyed. This striped base is uncommon in Nahuala huipils, but often seen in their tzutes. This fine example is in excellent condition. It was acquired from Miguel Sol on Calle Santander in Panajachel. W 82 x L 58 cm. (15-59) $ 85. OBO
