This circa-1980 daily huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two well matched dark red cotton panels that are decorated with supplementary brocade. The unique feature of San Antonio A.C. huipils is the "marcador" decoration, usually in floral and bird patterns. This decoration is double supplementary weft brocade, with the design appearing equally on both sides. This type of weaving is only done in this village. San Antonio A. C. huipils are often considered the best woven huipils among the Maya of Guatemala and their style influences that of many nearby villages. This fine weaving is in very good condition. It was acquired from Juana Mateo Rosales of Panajachel. W76 x L138 cm opened. (10-97) $ 140. OBO
