San Mateo Ixtatán huipil.

This post-2000 huipil is all hand embroidered on a double thickness of commercial “manta” cotton fabric. It is perfectly reversible and with the original collar featuring rows of appliqué ribbon on a cotton base. The principal pattern in the embroidery is of overlapping stars with complete coverage above and animal and plants embroidered on the exposed white base below. These huipils weigh 10-15 lbs. This very fine example is in excellent condition. It was acquired from Sra. Carmen Tepeú of San Pedro Sacatepequez (G). W 110 x L 77 cm. (21-08) $ 400 or best offer.
