Santa Catarina Palopo antique huipil.
From the Dr. Richard P. Mandell collection.
This circa-1960 huipil was hand woven on a back strap loom in three red and white warp-striped cotton base panels
that are decorated with supplementary weft brocade in horizontal rows featuring people, bird, plant and geometric
motifs. The center panel is wider and more heavily decorated. It is in very good condition.
W 85 x L 75 cm. (16-231) $ 280. OBO
