San Martin Sacatepéquez (aka, San Martin Chile Verde) daily huipil. This post-1980 daily huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in two well balanced black
cotton blend panels. These panels are decorated with supplementary brocade primarily in bird and plumed serpent motifs. The panels are joined by a hand embroidered
decorative seam. The head hole is trimmed in black velveteen. San Martin Chile Verde huipils are increasingly uncommon. This fine example is in excellent
condition. It was acquired from Estefana Culajah at the La Fuente market in Antigua. W92 x L74 cm. (14-33) $ 120. OBO
