Santiago Atitlan corte (wrap skirt). Hand woven on a foot treadle
loom in two matching cotton panels. Typical of Santiago Atitlán cortes,
the panels are not equal width, with a main panel and a narrow addition.
Apparently, the skirt looms don’t have a weft wide enough to suit
Atiteco women. This corte features the very fine ikat dye patterns
for which Santiago Atitlan is famous. Very good condition. Acquired
from Juana Escalon at the “bomberos” market in Panajachel. 100 x 308 cm.
(12-205) $ 100.
