San Juan La Laguna daily huipil.

This post-1980 huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two well matched, warp striped cotton blend panels. This material is called “aleman”, a cotton/rayon blend prized for its softness and drape. The traditional collar decoration is hand embroidered. Huipiles from San Juan La Laguna are uncommon. This classic example is in very good condition. It was acquired from Sra. Josefa Tocco of San Juan La Laguna at the “bomberos” textile market in Panajachel. W 67 x L 67 cm. (17-33) $ 95. OBO
