Patzún ceremonial huipil.
This large circa-1980 ceremonial huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two wide red warp-striped cotton panels that
are joined by a hand embroidered decorative seams. The surface decoration features extensive hand embroidery in floral and
feather motifs encircling the head opening, some in silk. This very fine example is excellent condition.
It was acquired from Sra. Estefana Culajah at the La Fuente textile market in Antigua. W 127 x L 63 cm. (17-02) $ 550. OB0
