San Lucas Toliman daily huipil.
This post-1980 huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two well-matched
turquoise cotton panels. The surface decoration is supplementary brocade featuring rows of small animal and
geometric motifs in traditional San Lucas patterns. It has a velvet “luna”, often indicating ceremonial use.
It is in excellent condition. This fine example was acquired from Sra. Petronila Mendez Bocó in the Mercado des
Artesanos in Antigua. W 73 x L 68 cm. (15-105) Was $90. Now $75 or best offer.
