Santa Maria Nebaj daily huipil.
This classic circa-2000 huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two white cotton blend base panels (“aleman”). These panels
are decorated with complex supplementary brocade featuring animal, bird and geometric motifs typical of Nebaj weavings. The traditional
collar design symbolizing the four cardinal directions is hand embroidered. This fine example is in very good condition.
It was acquired from Sra. Ema Tepeu of San Pedro Sacatepequez (G) in Antigua. W 69 x L 58 cm. (20-12) $ 150 or best offer.
