San Martin Sacatepéquez (aka, San Martin Chile Verde) daily huipil.

This circa-2000 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, flower and plumed serpent motifs. Hand embroidered decorative seams join the panels. The head opening is trimmed with an appliqué collar and black velvet trim. San Martin Chile Verde huipils are uncommon. This fine example is in excellent condition. It was acquired from Sr. Nicolas Mendez Bocó at the Mercado des Artesanos in Antigua. W 90 x L 80 cm. (17-88) $ 125. OBO
