San Andres Xecul blusa. W 81 x L 144 cm opened. This post-1980 blusa features hand embroidery on a white

and many whimsical animals in the surrounding areas. It also has intact smocking. These blusas are now increasingly
rare. This fine example is in very good condition. It was acquired from Ana Carolina Ajanel of Chichicastenango.
