Patzicía daily huipil.
This post-1980 daily huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two well balanced warp-striped
red base panels. The base panel fabric is "aleman", a blend of cotton and rayon prized for its softness and drape. The
panels are decorated with supplementary brocade in patterns typical to Patzicia, particularly the horizontal rows of
human figures. Patzicia huipils are increasingly uncommon. This classic example is in very good condition. It was
acquired from Sra. Estefana Culajah at the La Fuente textile market in Antigua.
