San Martin Jilotepeque daily huipil. W85 x L118 cm opened. This post-1980 huipil was hand woven on a back strap
loom in two well-balanced black cotton base panels. These panels are decorated with supplementary brocade
featuring plumed serpent and other geometric motifs and this decoration extends to the hem. The collar is trimmed
with a hand embroidered chain stitch and has been opened for easier access. This example is in excellent condition.
It was collected at the La Fuente market in Antigua. (10-142) $ 100.
